There's just 1 issue that I wonder about...
When the Commission threatened legal action on 10 Sept, we thought the Lords would be done with the Internal Market Bill by end of Sept
Number 10 then decided to *not* push for a tight timetable

So the EU then had to use the Article 5 / good faith argument, because the Bill is still to be approved - so breach of the protocol cannot *yet* be used as an argument
If the Lords removes all problematic parts of Internal Market Bill by the end of October, what does the EU do?
And, conversely, if the Lords does *not* amend the Bill substantially, does the Commission then issue a further notice - with breach of the protocol as the argument?
