Out of curiosity, are you a native English speaker? I had no problems at all reading the article. A couple of the sentences are a little awkwardly phrased, but things like "The vast vast majority of products Amazon sells it makes a profit on." are both grammatically fine and reasonably idiomatic.

Yeah, I'm a native English speaker.

The sentence you quoted is not impossible to read, but it is more difficult to comprehend than it should be. A simple rewrite will make it more clear.

Many of the sentences in the article are much worse.
