Can't they just say - "we did our best to look into what 51% of you wanted but it's just not feasible" - and back out of leaving?

The best way out now would be another referendum over the actual Brexit, not the Homer Simpson like imaginary one where the UK leaves the EU and all the old Commonwealth countries squeal with delight and ask Britain to take them over again as life in the empire was so wonderful for the natives and the filthy continentals prostrate themselves in front of John Bulls massive spitfire shaped Johnson as he whips in out his tweed three piece suit.
But as Brexit has become more a religious article of faith for the leavers and they know full well they would lose that vote and Parliament is rightfully concerned that they would be ignoring the will of the people, no matter how stupid that 'will' is there is an understandable concern over all of it.
