That still doesn't change anything. More information or a very long term focus isn't going to make someone see that being a successful #2 or #3 player in a market isn't a failure.

Are you seriously arguing that you have better insight into how Amazon should run their business than they do? Despite the fact that you have no information about what their prospects were other than whatever tiny morsels were publicly known? Has it occurred to you that there is non-public information that is informing their decision?
