The slight joking aside, this will mean that some SK destinations in the US will have to change to Delta hubs in order to provide meaningful connections and EB earnings. So goodbye ORD and IAD and hello to MSP, DTW, SEA, ATL and SLC. And EWR will have to go as well. SFO can probably sustain having limited connectivity and BOS and JKF are DL hubs.

I've been agnostic for a while. The sentimental side of me wants SAS to survive just because..but I know that realistically SAS has been on life support for years.

I don't mind changing US hubs. I don't see the issue there since it's only if those are the actual destination that there is an issue.
