Do you have any reason to believe that many other people share your perception?

Also, doesn't Amazon have unique defenses against this possibility? If sales suddenly fall off a cliff, Amazon has AWS and lots of B2B products that could keep them afloat for a time while they tried to recover. If people en masse decided to stop shopping at Walmart, they would have nothing to fall back on.

All they really need to do is curate their 3rd parties better. Problem solved.
