It seems to me Amazon's comingling is bad for competition. Players on their platform, not between Amazon and others.

Have any of the regulators taken note?

I've been reading Congress' anti-trust research and reports. Haven't seen this called out yet.

Legal thinking shifted towards a price focused for all things antitrust. You can be a monopolist, as long as you don’t quickly raise prices. That’s why 3 companies control 90% of meat packing.

Companies like Amazon are carefully engineered to avoid that type of enforcement action. Nothing will happen until you have a major political shift - I’d guess somewhere around 2035-2045 when demographics shift the political dynamic in the US.
