I hope they've learned their lessons not to play in the FTC playbook.
Really looks like the EU increased its oversight as a result of the FTC stance but then came to the conclusion that the FTC stance was not based on logic and truth and there was nothing deal-breaking in the ramification of the deal itself.
The CMA though, drank the FTC arguments like it was cool aid and went all in for a political play, they were looking for a conclusion, not for a solution, the console SLC debacle is a direct result of this, doing a silly math mistake because it fit their narrative and prevented them to properly look twice.
