Sure they can. But if they want to coerce more people to take the slow-ship option, they need to give back more. I assume Amazon parses the elasticity of this excellently, but it still means that some customers who would take slow shipping on their $5 item haven't been seduced away from the Prime shipping they *paid* for.
