SO..

Let me get this straight...

Zuffa can move fighters between the two orgs, but fighters in Strike can only resign with strike? If El Nino completes his deal can he sign with UFC or does he have to resign with Strike?

What if Edger wants to move to strike?

Some things are NOT optional.

The UFC will do what's best for the UFC and for Strikeforce.

Collusion requires more than one party. This is not like the stick-and-ball sports where each team has a separate and distinct ownership group. Strikeforce and the UFC are owned by the same people. They have no one to collude with.

Correct. But when you are working hard to convince the FTC you aren't one entity it would have to be coined, "collusion"...
