My reading is that the WCA doesn't want the current UMC organization. They won't be large enough to fund it, and it is staffed by progressives. They'd much rather than $25M and build their own. The super-majority requirement to leave may end up getting changed. It was something the WCA gave up in negotiations. But again, I'm not sure they want churches that are 50/50. They want to build an Evangelical denomination. That's easier with churches that are committed to their goal.
Now that General Conference has been postponed due to Covid-19, we will have to see what happens as all these decisions are on hold.
