I seriously doubt Scottish people would be happy to have loads of economic refugees stuck at it's borders and would want to be come part of the Common Travel Area like Ireland and the rUK.
Scotland has a population shortage as anyone with an ounce of talent + scooterscot buggers off as soon as they can. The SNP wants more immigration.
One DevoMax option is to allow the Scottish government to grant 5 year visas to workers who will be restricted to living and working in Scotland. IIRC some other countries restrict visas to undesirable territories.

Couple of 'yes' campaigners I know have been standing outside counting badges (not very scientific, I know) and trying to count people talking to the campaign tables outside and they reckon it's about 50/50, and this place is a sea of 'Yes' posters and flags, which outnumber 'No' by probably 100-1.

Any more?
(They're not punishments really, just the realities of being an independent country)
