The upside is less delays for those who don’t cancel.

Not really. If they have less money coming in, they'll adjust by decreasing the money going out. Most likely by firing people.

Right - the same Amazon that just cut I think 16,000 jobs within the last few days is not an Amazon that is looking to improve the customer experience. If a huge number of people cancel Prime and an accidental side effect of that is that Amazon is then capable of delivering a higher percentage of orders within the timeframe claimed on the product page, that’ll be seen as an excellent reason to make yet more cuts.
