Could anyone really say that Renault would benefit from data from Nissan?
Even speaking non-cynically the engine was developed by a third party, the hybrid system that they carried as a boat anchor when the car raced was developed by a third party, the car was designed by a contractor, and the team that built and ran the cars was all fired. There's really nothing left except the rights to the (completely useless) design. Renault was briefly brought up as possibly involved with adapting the F1 hybrid system but that went nowhere in more ways than one and they certainly didn't derive any benefit from the car competing when it never raced again.
