None of that matters. Haven't you been following any of these social media hate crime hoaxes and wars? Or watched _Ghost in the Shell_? It doesn't matter if there is no real bakery. Or a real bakery will be distorted by a game of Telephone by unscrupulous activists or journalists into something which vaguely looks right. And even if there is no such bakery, it may create a bakery: a real bakery will announce it's standing up for its principles and not baking for gay people, or a spat between a bakery and a gay couple (for completely other reasons unrelated to being gay) will be recycled, or heck, someone may step up to claim to be the bakery in question and to be fighting the good fight for Christianity. You might think, who would be so weird as to do that, as they must know what they are doing, but there are a lot of weird people out there and you only need one ( https://www.gwern.net/Littlewood ).
