The knife fight already took place; it ended a year ago, when I wrote the first entry in my Agentic commerce is a mirage series. Amazon began blocking agents last July; it's currently *suing* Perplexity over autonomous shopping with Comet. Amazon won't capitulate; it doesn't have to. Alexa for Sho...
