The scientists I know have been pretty loud about there being no good way to repair what's been broken. Stuff can't just be turned on again. I do expect more than just flipping off a switch: at some level there'll be outright sabotage, of data systems or physical hardware or both, for the purposes of destroying what is being made to go away. This is because that's why it's being done. Budget concerns were never the point. It's the wholesale destruction of American soft power and indispensable systems. That's why I expect physical sabotage under cover of 'decommissioning'.
