I always called it VC-backed price dumping, many American tech companies got successful by taking enormous amounts of VC capital to simply price dump competition.
I get side eyes from Americans when I bring this up as a key factor when they try to shit on Europe for "lack of innovation", it's more a lack of bottomless stacks of cash enabling undercutting competition on price until they fold, then jacking up prices for VC ROI.
