Almost every argument on that page for what is actually OK is what Google is doing.
The case law really doesn’t support the current case well, and the linked example doesn’t either.
There are literally hundreds of well known companies that are doing meaningfully worse, with extremely large market monopolies, and are being ignored.
As I’ve said in other threads, the standard hinges on ‘reasonable’ though, with no meaningful case laws or statute that define it in a useful way. So it’s going to hinge on essentially ‘I know it when I see it’.
