Mongo and Elastic would probably continue doing the same thing if they became Amazon's size. If something is unethical in the business world, it should be unethical regardless of your company's size. Although I don't personally find the integration of open source software into a commercial project to be unethical, if the license is adhered to.

This is not how anti trust works. The idea is that once you gain certain monopolistic powers you have to play by different rules.

How exactly is Amazon a monopoly though?

It's "monopolistic" not monopoly. There is a huge difference.
