If they don't believe you're prepared to destroy the company if that's what it takes, then you have zero power or influence. If they try to "call your bluff", you have to go there, otherwise they'll never respect you again.

So the outcome of that is that you either destroy the company or you’re out? Either outcome is the same from your perspective, you chose to no longer have any say in what happens next

Sure, but you have a say in what happens right then and there.
