Great read Zack. Very insightful. Humble feedback: 1 - Marketplaces have to clean up stale / fraudulent supply en masse sometimes. Etsy has done this. Why not amazon too? 2 - doesn't this presuppose Bezos isn't willing to kill a lucrative but counterproductive revenue line?
1. Yes, it's possible. It's just very, very hard at Amazon's scale. 2. Yes.
