The announcement is effectively recycled from the last two MWCs (and in between), except with a bit added on stating the explicit intent to separate the two operations ... mainly I expect for accounting reasons as the HW business probably had or needs some big writedowns, and if it continues to be unsustainable (highly likely) they can wind it up much more easily.

TLDR - there isn't really anything new here. Dunno why this statement specifically is what's worrying you.
