This is highly plausible.
Aren't there HM Revenue corporate income tax officials one can contact to ask about those gray areas? And do you think Amazon managers cared enough about not being seen as ugly Americans to do so?
Suppose I was visiting Britain and was unsure of the museum fee. It has happened. Should I just pay the lower amount and hope they won't care? I say no. As a guest in a (slightly) foreign country, I ask.
I suppose the Amazon approach would be to tell the British clerk that, despite what's in front of your eyes, I'm really in Luxembourg, and thus should pay nothing
