You're being silly about it, but this is the core of anti-trust. You 
can't enter two different markets with two products and make sure they 
work better with each other than with any other product in the opposite 
market.

Or rather, you can, but it's illegal and the government is meant to come 
after you. Of course, the government hasn't been enforcing this for 
decades, ever since it was bought by companies that do this.
