I think it would apply to companies with $xX billions in annual revenue.

Right. So my employer is at $10B today, and our growth is such that achieving that arbitrary $25B is a reasonable goal.

I've been with the company since we were less than $500M.

So at what arbitrary point do we cross from being a good guy to being an evil corporate titan that must be broken up? I don't feel like we've gotten evil; it feels like as we've grown we've built a greater capacity to server our customers better.
