The base can always cause their party to lose by insisting on punishing them if they don't do unpopular things.

You mean exactly as they did in 2016 because the candidate didn’t energize the base and so many fled to a more progressive candidate or just sat out? Like that? How many of the “de-energized” Dems either sat out or wrote in a protest vote for Bernie? Enough to change the outcome, I bet.

Yeah, not a convincing argument, I think.
