Unfortunately, anti-trust doctrine in the US has gone from "too little competition in a market is inherently bad" to "any % of market share is OK as long as it doesn't result in consumer prices getting too high too fast." We've really lost the plot of why anti-trust regulation was passed in the first place.

I don't personally have any knowledge of the answer to this question but, hundreds of people had to vote for it and they rarely all have the same things in mind when they do.
It's better to focus on what legislation does and says rather than what it was meant to do.
