>The incentive goes away if you don't sell on Amazon, right? Any Amazon "strangle" (your word, not mine) only exists because people choose to sell on Amazon, right?

And you can exit any monopoly of some industry by exiting the industry altogether, then know that anti-trust regulations exist despite of this.
