Steve’s Barking; Does Amazon tell Gimbals

Amazon is the destroyer of box store department stores according to popular wisdom.
While This maybe true for modern times I’m just wondering about all those old time department store like Gimbals, Marshal Fields, Time Square store, Caldors, Alexander’s,and all those Midwest, southern and West coast store that went out of business way before the internet was in common use.
What was their excuse?

If Amazon was to split up would their cloud business be a huge success and their retail business have    a struggle to stay in business?

Would Amazon be in business if there had been high interest rates during the last decade?

Just thinking 🤔
