None of these companies are good at making/managing games or development of games (or in the case Valve as of recent), they are great with their initial services (Google with Gmail/Google and Android OS, Amazon with their ecommerce site and AWS and Valve with Steam) but horrible with everything else they do outside of those aspects.

It's not like I find Microsoft any good making games either, but the point is an acquisition by another FAANG would keep Blizzard as a third party company with minimum changes in their core business, if any change at all

It's like when a Holding buy a company of a segment they don't have any expertise, they don't make deep changes in the business structure. 

And Google is an actually very good company and have a very good History of succeeding in many technology fields. They just don't care enough for gaming to spend more effort on it I guess, there is not enough money on the market for them to really bother, likewise Google do not find gaming an interesting enterprise from a technical and scientific point of view to really try. 

Yes lets have google buy them
