Price match creates downward pressure, nobody is gonna sue over lower prices.

This is like if you showed a supermarket that their competitor's oranges were more expensive, and they "matched" by raising their prices for everyone.

That is your assumption without evidence. Once the targeted market knows others are tracking the price, it can up the price without fear competing market will undercut.
