Walmart has basically always been superior to its competitors at logistics. It has been one of their key competitive advantages for many decades. They have been a data monster heavily focused on logistics for most of their existence (I've been reading about their various logistics advantages for 30 years now). Even if doing a thing is good for a competitor, that obviously doesn't mean that competitor will do said logical thing. Companies fail all the time because they're incompetent in one form or another (or many forms).
