You're entirely ignoring network effects. No one is saying Amazon should have made a loss indefinitely, or at all. They're saying that they deliberately made a loss to lock customers and businesses into their platform.
Network effects matter a great deal and I gave up half way through this article because I couldn't find any sign at all that you recognised this. It's liberal garbage: "Hey kids, here's how the world works if you entirely ignore power".
Hopeless. Sorry.
