Apparently there is no room in your thinking for the idea that the playing field is unfairly tilted in favor of Amazon, but let that pass.
Suppose the independent book sellers take your suggestion and just go out of business, is that a better world for everyone?
Sure if you are one of the entitled folks who can afford a computer, an Internet connection , and (multiple) reading devices. What if you don't have any of that , but just want to buy a book from a local bookstore? Sucks then, doesn't it?
