That's reasonable. Amazon may decide on its own before Apple, their motives are closer today, but I think it's unlikely for either. It'd have to be one hell of a prize to risk what they'd be risking.
A more likely path is law enforcement's habit of putting them in the PR hell of "we could have saved Little Tiny Baby X if these companies weren't so hell bent on protecting perverts and terrorists". Once you have the device, it's only a matter of someone making a sympathetic enough public case that they need access to it.
On that front, I think Apple is taking more proactive steps to keep themselves out of the situation, I'm just not sure it's possible to avoid it completely.
