I have never seen an OEM business desktop with Ryzen actually used anywhere outside the OEM's office. We'll see if this generation changes anything.

More importantly, it's 100% legal for these companies to get into this kind of exclusivity deal.
Dell is currently the only top3 OEM offering Threadripper - likely also as a result of an arrangement with AMD. Although I'm not sure who pays who. ;-)

The ruling is specific to EU law, which has a very extreme stance on monopolies.
You're from US and this practice is acceptable there. :-)
This case has been in court for a decade now. The initial ruling was very strict. Intel appealed and it's very likely they'll win in the end. EU is afraid of consequences. We don't have precedence in our legal system, but this would be a de facto precedence for many similar cases - often against other American giants (e.g Google).
Loyalty rebates are very common. You get them from shops and banks. Companies get them from other companies. It's a very natural idea.
These monopolistic practices which Intel was found guilty of in the EU. Though it is not currenlty illegal here for rebates, monopolistic practices are (you referenced Google). It is just speculation on why Dell isn't offering Ryzen Pro processors in their lineup and is highly questionable why they've noted EOL on Ryzen Pro in the reddit link.
I actually don't think EU's stance on monopolies are strict and I would argue that the view on monopolies have become very laxxed here in the US in recent history.
Continuing to argue that Intel may not have anything to do with this is turning a blind eye to their history as well.
