Yes is 50 games and over 5 years, since the Ferns last played OFC opposition. That is partly due to Covid & of course the Ferns getting automatic entry to last years WWC. So yeah completely wrong to suggest by being in OFC the Ferns don't get to play plenty of higher ranked teams.

Whether is Olympics or WWC qualifying it's only a 2 week tourney, that takes up just 1 window (when played in a window!). And with the piss easy cakewalk it is, then the Ferns get the regular tough pool games biennially, at either an Olympics & WWC that The Prof craves to see. Anyway the leaving for Asia debate has been done to death.

Still I'm sure true elite athletes like Zoe Hobbs or Eddie Osei-Nketia, would love to just have to be the fastest person in Oceania (sans Australia) to make an Olympics!
