Sure, but consider the specific situation we have in gaming where Microsoft is sitting in a distant third to Sony and Nintendo. Aren't any limitations placed on how Microsoft can grow in the gaming market just making it easier for the bigger players to cement their positions in the lead?
I get what you're saying, but I think the answer isn't "let microsoft get bigger" but instead "break sony and nintendo up". I think instead of there being 2 huge players, now there will be 3 huge players and not much will change, still an oligopoly.
Instead we should be encouraging as many small studios as possible, activision/blizzard is huge, but that to me is even bigger reason why they should stay separate
