First of all, why wouldn't they? They are confident that their satellite tech is superior.
And second, SpaceX is dominating the commercial launch market to such a degree that they would run into antitrust issues if they were to use their launch dominance for antocompetitive behaviour.
But Bezos would probably be too proud to launch on SpaceX...
Musk's stated goal for Space X is to colonize Mars. His stated goal for Starlink is to fund said colonization. I 'm not so sure that he would enable any competition that he saw as having the potential to pose a real threat to his ultimate goal.
I've been ok with the tesla-only superchargers, because they are good. But it is a self-serving infrastructure and a competitive advantage.
I wonder what the reality would be about sending up bezos's satellites? It could also be a PR problem, PLUS it would undermine the bezos employees working on their launch platform.
