If every part of Amazon is really like that, then it'll make the task of breaking them up much easier!

  That's actually quite possibly true, if they were indeed broken up. But a hypothetical breakup might also forbid certain (or any) kinds of collaboration between any of them, which might include calling each other's APIs.

    Otherwise: Later versions of the Hydra story add a regeneration feature to the monster: for every head chopped off, the Hydra would regrow two heads. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lernaean_Hydra https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lernaean_Hydra

      >Heracles required the assistance of his nephew Iolaus to cut off all of the monster's heads and burn the neck using a sword and fire.

    It would mean that if two split off pieces of Amazon want to call each others' APIs, other companies could also do so under the same terms (if there is a charge, everyone pays the same rate). This could work.
