Guess it's more symbolic than anything. Tell people not to become complacent. Make sure they support their government if they suddenly want to increase military spending to 5% of GDP. If things really break down, people will get creative. Same as when sanctions cut Russia off swift... they figured ways around it.
Right, I dug a little deeper and the original publication cited was more interesting though, it calls for merchants to accept "more than one payment method":
If you have a supermarket, shop, petrol station, hotel, restaurant, café, market stall or other point of sale establishment, it is a good idea to accept multiple means of payment, so that your customers can always pay. This makes your point of sale more resilient to disruptions in the payment system.
It's perhaps not a stretch to narrate on top of this? The only limit is what we don't try.
