Clickbait.
It's not likely anyway, given how it would almost certainly result in an antitrust lawsuit.
They knew they got right up to the line with the last couple, the feds were already preparing documents and they knew it.
And yet the mergers still went through
Valve also has no incentive - it's basically a free money machine.
It also acts like $16 billion is both not enough, and a cartoonishly large amount. Meanwhile, Activision blizzard was just purchased by msft for $69 billion.
