No, really, I have worked at amazon in a job exactly around product compliance and such.
All this is very hard to solve and they do what they can, people wont believe it, but amazon is not just an app, the heavy lifting part is logistics, admin thereof and compliance.
Theres no easy way to be fraudulent on amazon, the cost of market entry for sellers is rather big.
Mislabeled products and bad account health have terrible consequesnces for sellers.
I do understand it might appear from the outside that nobody cares, but it looks different once inside.
As for the allegations a profit/benefit calculation being behind it is most likely wrong, amazon, apart from fullfilment center staff is always overhiring to be ready for peak seasons and the whole thing is subsidized via aws, the real money maker.

It's easy enough that fraud (for example recycled listings with old reviews) is common enough that many people, including myself, have run into it.

Not enough that it isn't widespread.
Small changes should be fine in my opinion also it’s not like it’s impossible to also determine the edit distance between two pieces of text.
Amazon could be doing a lot more here.
