I'm not saying just cast people adrift, replace the furlough with a generous basic income for an extended period of time that doesn't tie people into waiting for jobs that may not exist further down the line.

It may politically be easier?
Universal Credit is so poor many people with mortgages etc. (not the "traditionally poor") and skilled jobs have to go to the foodbank after paying their bills.
A known issue Tories refused to address when it came up years ago.
But Sinak has the power and will to extend furlough. I am not disagreeing with you btw, I just suspect that may be a factor.
(R of) Ireland introduced a temporary UBI instead.

Tories will never do this.

Ahh, I understand what you mean, thats what I would be using furlough for this time around if I thought I was in the "waiting room for redundancy" as someone called it.

You wouldn’t be saying that if you being made redundant imminently.
