A breakdown in EU- and, possibly, US/Saudi relations. Unlike dealings with, say, Iran, any measured would likely to be targeted more directly at MBS and individuals in positions in power, who would see themselves added to various sanction list. These measures would likely pack some punch, as it is very common for Saudis with means to both do business as well as spend time/get medical care/send their kids to school in the west. This would point at a possible future resolution, which would see MBS removed from power and some more reasonable person from the family taking over.
