assuming faul did NOT get delusions of grandeur after 1970 and the beatles DID announce the truth about everything....
what do you think their press conference or announcement would have been like?
"hello, my name is bill shepperd....you know me as paul mccartney of the beatles, but the REAL paul died four years ago....HERE'S WHAT HAPPENED"
we can only speculate....
what do you think?

...then I am a hoax!"
All the audience laughing...

I think that John and Faul would've have been on friendly terms. I think the remaining Beatles and Faul could've ultimately toured (perhaps with the help of Klauss Voorman) but fans would've known and respected Faul for what he was - an official filler or standin for Paul. He may have even been affectionately called Faul by the fans and it would all be a good laugh shared by everyone. And John would've continued to write songs for him to sing lead in - but it would be open and above-board and everyone would know.
Probably more albums would've been burned too. It's a shame really. Honesty always works out better in the long run. Short term solutions like lying because of fear, panic, an instinct to cover up etc lead to long-term problems.

I don't think there would be any valid excuses for hiding the truth, and fans won't like the fact that they were deceived. The Beatles would be smeared of its grandeur facade, and lawsuits will flood about. The remaining members would be delegated to recruit a musician who is worthy enough to replace Paul, and begin a healing tour in an effort to reintroduce the new Beatles and reunite with the fans. Faul would be sent off to an exile in Vegas working as a Paul impersonator at the Flamingo Resort Hotel. That's how I see it going down.
