If they would've continued with Biden they would've shot themselves in both feet, maybe their arms as well. Think Kamala was considered a much bigger threat as well. We'll never know what would've happened if there was an internal election for candidacy, could create a rally behind the flag effect but also a lot of throwing mud against your ally causing part of the Dems not to vote in the election at all.
