This has the admirable advantage of waiting until there is an actual

in the past 30 years but might happen in the future.

I must admit that I don't understand that reasoning at all, assuming
that this discussion is still about anti-Trust policy. Once there is
an actual problem to address, it will be because we are enmeshed in a
lawsuit, and it will be much too late to change our policies. Now, I
realize that that does not prove that we have to change our policies
(I regard that as the output of this exercise), but saying you want to
wait until there is a problem to consider changes is IMO akin to
saying you don't want to consider putting in fire extinguishers until
there is a fire.
