Maybe I'm being thick, but is he saying you have to choose 3 of 3 or 1 of 3?

I actually thought the same thing reading this quote. But the convention is present three, choose two. His example is an appeal to one's sense of what I can only describe as "drama". The "dramatic" realization being of course that Amazon is different; you have to choose three out of three instead of the conventional choose two out of three. Choosing one out of three is less dramatic and therefore must be eliminated. Not logical I know.
