It's an easy way for WBD to distribute their content in France using Prime Video's infrastructure until its new streaming service is ready to be launched. I imagine this Warner Pass will be merged into "Max" once it's available.
It's not only that. Canal+ is in the midst of a partial carriage dispute with WBD. This only affects the legacy Warner channels, of which one (Warner TV) was exclusive to the platform. Eurosport remains there through a separate deal though, and the legacy Discovery channels were already committed to an exclusive distribution deal with Altice France; however, this expired in 2022 and Canal+ can integrate these channels back to these platforms if a new deal is signed.
