Presumably it's a combination of "thank you for what you contributed to Star Trek" and maybe a way to acknowledge him letting them license the final scene narration off of an album he did some 20 years ago.
I hadn't heard that, other than they got his blessing basically (and the licensing) and he was given a copy of the script to read. Cirroc Lofton seems to be the one that was as close to hands-on involved as you can get when you're not a writer of the script.
It's just something I read on reddit. maybe the "certain degree" was "he read the script and did not object". Maybe they meant this: https://screenrant.com/...
Lofton: ... And so throughout the step-by-step process of this episode developing, he was aware of it. I had his blessing, and I was happy to get the opportunity to do this love story for Sisko.
Newton: ... Ciroc got a phone call, and it was Mr. Brooks, and it was out of the blue. And he was able to put me and Kerrice both on the phone with them, and I won't share the details of the conversation, but what I got to witness was Mr. Brooks unequivocally handing the reins over to Kerrice, to this younger generation.

So, as someone who is watching the entirety of DS9 for the first time... Spoilers? Lol. But actually, that made me appreciate the episode more.
I really like how this series evolves. The last three episodes were all really good. This DS9 homage felt great in a franchise which is very much TOS/TNG focused.
I did not quite get the "Thank you, Avery" in the end and had to check whether Brooks died? Is it because he retired?
