Why can't they do everything you suggested without being part of the Spanish state?

I understand that it's unlikely that Spain would allow them to leave the state and continue to trade freely with the remaining regions, but IMO that's on Spain.

If they are isolated, it will be due to the bloody mindedness of the state they're removing themselves from, and not a completely necessary and unavoidable result of their independence.

Why do independence and co-operation with Spain need to be mutually exclusive?
