Atleast it would look better by a nice amount visually.
Plus, it wouldn't look as bad as you think it would. Bricks normally "light" themselves by having one light side and one dark side wherever the sunlight is coming from, even without shaders. It just wouldn't be as dark as IRL shadows, it would still be good enough.

The problem is, the shadows ARE PART of the shaders, so if shaders we're completely off, shadows would not show.
It's like trying to run the LSD shader with no shaders on

aren't shaders and shadows different, though?
i don't know what the technical blockland system is with that but i've seen plenty of games with shader and shadow options, both seperate.

Shadows acctualy put shadows

It wouldn't look ugly, it would look like ROBLOX.
