#2 The cash was already transferred, the previously blocked products have already been bought; at this point what difference does it make whether the deal is killed or not?

Because found treasure is quickly spent on day-to-day items, equipment has to be replaced all the time and parts acquired just to maintain existing equipment. With the sanctions on, companies have to choose between doing business with the US and doing business with Iran. This means that for Iran, in order to get around sanctions, every import item is more expensive, and every export item gets it less revenues than without sanctions. Over time, this has greatly weakened the regime. A re-imposition means Iran will never get the headroom for economic expansion that China has gotten for 4 decades.
