Going after things that are technically anti-competitive, but realistically aren't particularly major, is a problem. Everyone thinks "yep we're doing our job, making a difference!" and stops there.
Like a government going after tax evasion "we stopped Frank from claiming an air freshener in his car, so we're saving the economy!" while Facebook farms billions in profits offshore.
Fixing something small has the risk of creating a facades of activity/effectiveness when in reality its still 90% broken.

The EU has been doing far more than the US on this front. Don't mistake US complacency with the EU's efforts. It feels like you want to let "lesser" evils go in favor of just the "big" ones. Don't you see how immoral and problematic that is? > but realistically aren't particularly major Your opinion and not fact. It seems quite major to me.
