Cascading corporatization (companies owned by companies owned by funds, owned by shareholders owned by other entities) breaks all sorts of things. Governance is a big one. The idea of "shareholder ownership" is fairly theoretical, in most cases.. both the concept of "shareholder" and "ownership" need a lot of qualification.

"6 people own a share of a bookshop" isn't really an analogy.
