UH OH!
Yes, the glass is cracked, but it's still strong enough to withstand the strength of our bears.
Two inches thick, and several hundred pounds, this glass is made of several layers and is designed to splinter, not shatter.
We'll be replacing it soon!

And he downplays the idea that we would lose diplomatic nimbleness by framing that as relying on goodwill, but that's not the point. NZs interests would be being negotiated by Canberra. Dairy, for example, would be card in their hand to play in negotiations about say, coal.

He specifically cuts the threat of tariffs randomly jumping to 100% as if being part of Aus would help in any way whatsoever. If china doesn't have enough economic clout to deter that then, soz, you're dreaming
