Given the financial positions involved they could easily afford to (market cap order of 30 vs 200 billion USD, Intel free cash flow per quarter of 5-15 billion). Regulatory authorities probably wouldn't let them, but that is another argument to make.

It's the same argument - it's just not going to happen, regardless of monetary considerations.
