Leaving the UP - good or bad? (Repost)

I left the UP! (Thought I'd just let you know...) No, seriously, I was wondering...
1. Does leaving the UP *only* shutter your chances of trade - and voting on those now-no-longer important resolutions?
2. Does trade affect how easy it is to flip star systems?
My reason for asking this is this.
Basically, I was pursuing a cultural-military victory (turned off cultural and am attempting Total Galactic Domination without firing a shot... hehehe). To this end, I require - well, would find it easier with - Terror Stars, but the UP has (twice, yup, twice) banned the things.
Thus, I left the UP, thinking "haha! The foolish Yor are all that's left, and with my mobile Party Palaces on the rampage, it's sure to take only a few years!". The joke seems to be on me. Is it?
