It's supposed to reduce how much a company can leverage their market dominance in one market to get an unfair advantage in another one.
See how Amazon places their products (ex. Backpacks) in more prominent positions on their dominant market. Here the unfair advantage is that if a company is already using Microsoft Office and it comes bundled with Teams (for "free") what chance would Slack or other comm systems have?
Teams sucks. I would gladly pay for ANYTHING else vs using it even for free.
