Google Cloud has ~10% market share; I don't think this is an antitrust avoidance play. More likely, it's removing a concern companies might have with bringing workloads onto a relatively smaller player. Especially one that has a history of discontinuing products.

The issue isn't as much market share as it is how sticky picking a cloud platform is. At that point the market share doesn't really matter, especially if your name is Google.

Let's just hope this isn't step 1 for their plan to do exactly that.
