The main advantage is that you can switch back to the Amazon webapp window
if one is already opened.
This is a key advantage for certain webapps, like Gmail. But for more
classic web sites, like Amazon or Ebay, the benefits are debatable.

  Remove amazon as a webapp, move to simple sensible browser call

Bug description:
  What advantages do we get from running Amazon as a webapp?

  Instead provide a desktop icon with Exec=sensible-browser
  https://www.amazon.com/

  and we save significant space on the image by using the already
  existing browser.
