And that has what to do with the now dead NZ2?
The demise of Unions ability to retain talent has been at the start of the argument. Less places for Union players to play and more for league.
You can debate it's relevance to the title thread but the fact is, it was covered in the thread discussion and it's an update for those who were part of that discussion.. like you.

The only relevance being it will be better for NZR since it's one less team that will be able to "buy" players. Not that it matters a hell of a lot, Japan and France still are able to.
It's just the end result of the sudden shift to Pro Rugby, the clubs will have to learn to live within their means. It also shows that NZR had the right idea and and controlled the entire game in NZ. They pay the players meaning none of the SR clubs will ever be in real financial trouble, no need for a salary cap and they can pay the top players whatever they think they are worth.

Less clubs means lower wages in union

less places for players to find a job
