@Joyg If you have Sky Glass, you do not need to connect a Sky Stream puck to it, as the puck is essentially built into the TV.

Yeah, thats the point of the Sky Stream puck, to provide the Sky streaming platform on any TV, whereas the Sky Glass is a TV with the platform built in.

Unless there was any specific reason you wanted the Sky Glass, you would almost certainly be better off continuing with your Stream puck and purchasing another TV.

Even the Gen 2 Glass isn't particularly distinguished hardware: if you don't want Sky functionality built in or need the finance terms then buying something else is a very reasonable decision.
