SE OPT Primary at 1K6 what purpose of wiring "ZNF"

Hi Folks,

Can anyone know what the purpose/function of my red circuited wiring for this SE OPT Primary at 1K6 / 30W ?
Which circuit and example used for ? Any benefit to the AMP design ?

Some mains benefits of CFB (and NFB in general)
1. Allowing the use of pentode/tetrodes with all their pros
a) Low miller capacitance
b) Higher power output (close to 50% theoretical, I've achieved 45% efficiency)
2. Triode like or better linearity.
3. Higher DF vs power output

To get higher benefits vs %CFB, you should be looking for steeper (high gm) tubes.
 
It’s a winding dedicated to negative feedback only with a thin wire not able to be used as secondary connected to a speaker.

You can deduct it by looking at the columns where there are written all impedances (0-6-24 for the ZNF) and from the table below, where its Rdc is declared at 3,8 Ohm.
