Is there some number of gated ecosystems that we get gouged by that would be considered acceptable and non-monopolistic? Three, ten?

It has nothing to do with competition between platforms, but competition within those platforms.

When a platform reaches a sufficient size (subjective), it must be opened to competition for services provided within that platform.

We're talking about the base operating system for global computing here, not a car's dashboard system
