Lot of people love old Stevie hits. And she wouldn't be the first singer who scrapped their career and started again

Just in case my point doesn't mean whether that's what I wish had happened or not. This is pure speculation, and I'm just playing the What If game. I don't have a crystall ball, nobody does. We'll never know what would have happened.

Anyway, I've never been to a Stevie Nicks concert, and I don't think I would go, either now or in a non-The Dance parallel universe. Unless someone invited me. If it's free, maybe I would go.

I don't believe Enchanted would have happened without The Dance. With sold out Mac shows and all the buzz, she, her management and record company had to quickly come out with something to sell and promote. No time to make a studio album so she threw together Enchanted while still in the limelight of The Dance which worked.
All of this is hypothetical. What would have happened if a reunion never happened?
In the 2000s concerts exploded with older acts hitting the road making big bucks. Its quite possible she could have made some good coin. But the Mac made her famous and when she needed them the most rebooted her career.
With her wild success in 1997 and 1998 let her come forward with lots of details about her personal life that I doubt she would have revealed if she was not another success i.e. klonopin addiction, breast implant removal, etc.
