Yep, even from here in Finland regular UPS/DHL express services are normally 1 or 2 days to US (e.g. UPS Express Saver is 1 day to ~NY and 2 days elsewhere). Though even postal items can arrive in a week as well, with luck.

Yes, monthly SEPA payments (with a static amount and static reference/message) are a commonly used service at least in Finland, for e.g. paying rent between private individuals, and it works as-is with Mullvad wire transfers.

The parent meant that antitrust laws usually apply even if there is no monopoly in the strictest possible sense (i.e. literally no competitors). A dominant market position is enough.
