Your start-up also won't get acquired by anyone "with a market cap >75bn EUR, or turnover in the EU >7.5bn EUR/annum." That may be fine with some folks. But it's an obvious downside if you're a start-up or backer thereof.
Are you claiming that big companies can only exist in an environment where they are allowed to be really anti-competitive?

No. Nobody claimed that. Because it's a straw man.
"Your startup will be __fine__" implies there is no effect on a start-up. That's not true when one considers ecosystem effects.
