ps if other providers had it without VM then you would have a point
You are so defeatist, Dave! It has everything to do with it.

Sky would not like having popular channels on VM's platform that they were unable to bring their viewers, and this would provide an excellent backdrop for a trade.

I mean, if Discovery were to win the lion's share of the Premiership rights, think of the damage that would be done to Sky if Discovery were not willing to play ball with Sky. If Discovery then said that Sky could have their HD and UHD channels if Sky did a deal on Sky Atlantic, do you really believe that Sky would fold its arms and fail to do that deal? That's just one scenario I could envisage.
