I wonder why Amazon doesn't embrace this wisdom on sales of other digital content?

From Amazon's help page:
Quote:
Amazon Appstore and Digital Music purchases are not returnable after purchase. If you're having difficulty accessing, playing, or downloading an item after purchase, contact Contact Us

Purchases from Prime Video can be canceled within 24 hours of purchase provided you have not attempted to stream/download the video. For more information, go to Cancel an Accidental Prime Video Order.
Why not use the same philosophy across the board?
