It's a good idea and countries started that with Russia though it's still continuing. USA would just follow that model

What do they care about the exchange value if they're not exchanging anything with the US?

Adjusted for PPP, the Russian economy is the 4th biggest in the world, experiencing a boom after the start of the war. Largest than any in Europe.

Everyone knows the USD is artificially inflated and has been for decades, propped up by oil and the threat of violence. Y'all gonna learn when this mother of all bubbles pops.
