5. Boris wants to force a hard Brexit by running out the clock.

The opposing idea, I think, is first to signal the EU that the UK doesn't want a no-deal exit. The EU isn't excited about this constant chaos. But once the the signal is sent clearly, the opposition can call an election, after which there might be some hope the EU will give the UK a bit of breathing room. Of course, the best outcome would be a second referendum on Brexit, with a different result than from the first, because there won't ever be much wiggle in re-negotiating an exit
