I think this piece avoids the point. There has been a real decline in bee and other pollinator populations in the wild. Just because commercial operators can continue to breed new colonies doesn't mean that there isn't a problem.

I don't know the numbers but there's an awful lot of crop production reliant on wild pollinators.

This is true. We keep bees and the price for essentials is going up.

Got 26 pounds of clover honey yesterday, though ...

If there has been a real on decline in wild pollinators on which a lot of crop production is reliant, shouldn’t there have been a corresponding decline in crop production?
