Philby killed in the Spanish Civil War

[The Vet]

What effect does this have on Anglo-American espionage against the Soviet Bloc, and Cold War history in general?

Philby betrayed a lot of anti-Communist partisan groups in Soviet-occupied territory that were sponsored by the West.

If he were killed before he became a Soviet spy, these groups might give the Soviets more trouble.
