I'm pretty familiar with both Corsair and Cryer infocards, and neither of those imply anything more than some kind of informal neutrality/non-agression 'pact' as part of the Sigmas war. The nature of the relationship may have changed recently, which I'd understand, but as far as I'm aware, the situation described here is not represented in-game. Unless that's a more recent player development that has been roleplayed on the forums? But I'm not sure any link towards that was provided in the thread.
The relationship between Wisp and the Brotherhood has indeed become quite a bit more cordial, generally thanks to this deal. I was also talking to one of the TBH leaders (you're going to excuse me that I don't precisely remember who that was as those have changed recently quite a few times) and during our conversation he mentioned that Cryer did indeed have some sort of a deal with Corsairs.

The problem is one of the few viable Cryer trade routes is as follows:
> Stabiline to Denver, Colorado
> Pharmaceuticals to Cambridge
> Med-Stasis Bands to Crete
And here we hit a bit of a bottleneck. Going empty from Crete to Atka doesn't help, so the only exportable commodity is the Artifacts. Now we take it to Hawaii and bring Consumer Goods back, however it would make a lot more sense for the Artifacts to be immediately sellable at Atka, which makes both iRP sense (research) and ooRP one (closing the route).
