Poole will soon be open for business. That's almost a new system.

Oh and Cassini being connected to Albama. Will they both stay guard systems? If yes - that might be a strange new warfront between Xenos and Rogues.
They are still guard systems.

Freeport 14 is no longer in the Yukon system.

In seriousness, I wouldn't think it'd be that expensive, but I would expect some kind of come-uppance from Ageira for messing them around. To be honest, I don't really know why they haven't already shut down their lanes and gates, given the war. Maybe the control centre was on Bonn (actually that could be a reasonable explanation).

Ageira and DSE's relationship with Rheinland is already severely strained due to the Bonn incident (they still have their own offices on the station though). Without some serious apologies and financial incentives, the two corporations are likely to abandon Rheinland.
While the G/L Network master controls are on the IC stations at the House capitals, since the Networks are the properties of the Houses which purchased them, Ageira/DSE are under legal obligation not to sabotage their own products. However, due to the inherent dangers of space (pirate attacks/hacks, micro-meteorites), the Networks do require regular maintenance, and without the two corporations both working in concert, it does put the longevity of Rheinland's Network in jeapardy.
