" means we start again and deal has to be renegotiated and re-approved by all parties"
So what? this is a process that happens to ASX businesses daily. It happens because holders vote no. It is not the end of the world.

"stay in trading halt for many more months"
Complete alarmist rubbish.

"focus on the parameters of the deal in front of us. That’s what we can influence. "
Complete ignorant alarmist rubbish.

I encourage everyone reading the above to investigate these or any other claims put forward as fact regarding what can or cannot happen to an ASX listed entity (mine especially) are correct, alarmist rubbish or dubious attempts at manipulation of the voting process.
A quick call to ASX will provide you with some very quick and surprising answers.
