A point that's popped into my head:

I'll preface it by saying that this isn't to discourage organisation outside of LP- it's deeply vital and can do a world of good. But for people who have left, I'd say don't think bc you've left Labour alone that Labour will leave you alone.
What I mean is that on the offchance that Starmer somehow wins back Scotland (I can't see being likely) and wins...he could go down the same route as Blair and seek to weaken unions, especially housing unions considering the direction his renters policy is already taking.
He could damage left organising outside of the LP and weaken unions that many people will between now and 2024 have been spending years strengthening in workplaces.

I think if the LP front is abandoned entirely it opens up an unprotected flank for the socialist movement.
This isn't to attack people who've left or anything like that - the left is bigger than the LP but it must organise in many different facets to succeed, only one of them being electoral. It's just a point I think should be considered by anyone who's disregarded LP altogether.
