"They didn't entirely succeed in their aims" seems like really terrible reasoning to me, and also has really bad long term consequences. If I'm a massive market leader like Intel then, I now have all the incentives in the world to use disgusting underhanded tactics to bury my competition. Worst case scenario, they get severely weakened like AMD was for years and I face no legal consequences. Best case scenario, I kill my only competitor and face a paltry $1B fine. If they are in fact using the reasoning you think they are, then they are even bigger idiots than I had previously thought.
