Okay sure yes it was "stress induced" but he also had a known genetic medical condition. His father died from a similar stroke around the same age. I am certain the stress made it worse but it wasn't just stress.

Granted, him living just another 5 years could have had remarkable effects on how the USSR formed.

I wish I could to any degree of certainty but I am not well versed enough in soviet history to speak with confidence. In the mildest of terms, I think his contribution to the first (especially the first) and second five year plans would have been valuable.
