Yes, every time there was discussion about Amazon not being profitable it was discussed.

TBF, it was obvious for Uber too, but when that one decided to cash on the results of the growth, there wasn't much they could take. So it's not a certain thing by any means.
But anyway, it's also clear SpaceX isn't doing the same as Amazon.
