Sure, but that's really naive in practice, isn't it? Because "a new competitor comes in" really isn't as easy as it sounds, especially in chips for example. Getting to the point where you can actually compete is really, really, really difficult and requires a lot of investment (money, time and resources).
Like many aspects of idealized Capitalism, I think it doesn't work in practice nearly as well as it does in theory. Which is why we made laws about this sort of stuff a long time ago. But they've not really been super strictly enforced for a while has been my impression. Perhaps they should be again?
Difficult when Capital is global and the companies making all this stuff are global. But I think they'd accept a US court decision given the centrality of that market...
So it doesn't just work like that in practice.
