AWS is a poor example because they aren't remotely close to having the market dominance of Google. They are more like McDonalds: a huge fish in an ocean.
AWS is huge in a segment (cloud) of the industry, but that segment represents a very small % of the overall industry.

Just as in programming, special cases are (legal) code smells. If the policy can't cleanly handle industry segmentation, it's probably going to fail.
