Amazon should have known better. They were surely going to be held-up for some form of reparations.

I don’t believe Amazon was settled on New York finally and completely. They were still dangling the carrot. Still trying to glom another billion here, another billion there out of New York.
That’s what they do.
I don’t believe New York was their favorite and first choice. Amazon is a whore on sale to the highest bidder. New York wasn’t working out too well. And then that chick with the big teeth really screwed the pooch.
So Amazon blamed her and bailed out.
You are fantasizing and miss the mark.
