If Louis XV wasn't such a moron for returning the Austrian Netherlands for some weird reason like getting the approval of other states,how would things end?Obviously,France would get more money and the monarchy would get more prestige(instead of losing it like OTL).Would France be rich enough to avoid bankruptcy under his more idiot of a grandson if the guy another war?Another thing is would the diplomatic revolution still happen?Obviously though,the British would freak out,how will this play out in future wars against the British?
