Netflix has its own MBA with the guild as is it is. the only way they kill the studios is if the studios kill exhibition to chase the streaming dragon

theatrical has essentially been advertising for home video (now streaming) sales since DVD. and it's still an extra $10b a year that Netflix doesn't get because it will never do exhibition. Amazon seems to get that because it's committing fully (for now) to making MGM as strong theatrically as Prime is for streaming.
