Do we have any indication that Burke or others are keeping him under closer control?

When he was hired, Treliving clearly had a number of years to implement his vision. That time frame is shorter now. That was my point so maybe we interpret that saying differently.
As Haynes put it, he has one bullet left.
The runway is shorter. The clock is ticking.
I would nitpick your statement that he "likely" needs to get this hire right to survive. There is no likely about it.
As to whether Burke and ownership will have more involvement in his decisions, it's hard to say since we don't know how that works today. But just like an underperforming business, the BOD start to get more involved in big CEO decisions. I'd be surprised if Treliving doesn't have to explain himself a little more going forward.
