Seems more like an artifact of Amazon having enabled global logins late into product development than a "feature" to me.

Are you sure it's two accounts? I am using the same login on two different Amazon sites as well, but I'd call that SSO more so than "two accounts on one email address", since all data is separated by country, but the email and password are the same.

It’s an artifact, you’re right.

Source: I also had Amazon accounts in two separate countries and witnessed the different phases of global logins being implemented.

It has separate order history
