Has Trump Whacked Tariffs on NZ because of what PM Luxon's Highest Level Advisers have said about him?

Executive Director of the NZ Initiative Oliver Hartwich told Newstalk ZB that the best way to avoid being tariffed by President Trump is to adopt the following strategy: "We can't risk angering the Americans". He makes a strong point. Good on him. So what did former NZ Initiative Senior Economist Matt Burgess, who is now Prime Minister Luxon's Chief Economic Adviser have to say about Donald Trump a few years ago? "If anyone is willing to do Biblical-level harms to the country to protect himself, it is probably Donald Trump". Burgess wrote this line when Trump had lost office to Biden in 2021, probably thinking he would never be President again. Meanwhile Hartwich followed up a few weeks ago with an article headed, "Its Trump’s defenders, not detractors, who have ‘Derangement Syndrome’". Wow. So Trump has been doing "Biblical level harms" to the United States of America? All to protect himself? With lines like those ones, I'm surprised Trump's not tariffing Kiwi exports 50%. Can New Zealand Prime Minister Luxon please confirm whether he agrees with his Chief Adviser?
