I love this reply. We can go even further. If we would approach air safety in such way as Nuclear, then de Havilland DH.106 Comet would be first and last commercial jet.

+many. There are plenty good Enterprise software with bad rep. You can spend a lot of engineering talent to rebuild what is already solved or just buy boring tech. Splunk by definition is boring and with Twitter scale makes sense. Twitter is not too big, its decently sized.
Defining monopoly by marketshare is shallow. Best monopoly is when your customers switching costs are high. Thats why some of FAMG is with so good friends with Lawmakers. To provide political protection.
I am not from US, but what I see from my experience there is one huge problem with mergers (besides all other): too big to fail. If you become systematical player like big banks and if you intentionally or non-intentionally get in trouble. You will be bailed out, not go bankrupt. This turns on God mode for Corporations, this create intention become reckless.
If big banks would not be bailled out in 2008. Most likely we would see at least some kind of fragmetation.
