I dare say it also looks like antitrust with teeth, abandoning the morally and intellectually bankrupt Chicago school approach (basically, "antitrust only needs to consider harm in the form of increased prices to the consumer"), and reversing the burden of proof on mergers (at least over a certain size), so that instead of having to prove harm to block them, the companies have to prove a genuine benefit in order to merge.
Now, granted, growth in the size of a company is only one form of growth, and this wouldn't be sufficient to stop the "ever-increasing growth at all costs" mindset that's infected our corporate culture, but it is a necessary step.
