Christine wasn't planning on making a record on her own. She didn't have to come back. She was retired. To say she had no choice is blatantly false.

If Christine had promoted her album, "In the Meantime" I think it would have done quite well. She had a lot of airplay despite not doing anything with it.
Further, Buckingham Nicks, prior to FMAC was a commercial failure. Without Mick bringing the forces together, Dragoon would not be able to yell at us.
