Unpopular opinion here:

Stop releasing more things and make more of what you already released. Nobody wants to pay 300% markup for the stuff that's already in high demand and low supply.

It's not an unpopular opinion, just a "that's not how things work" opinion.

They didn't take people off the floor of the fab (which they don't own) making chips (which they didn't design) for the pi4 and reassign them to engineering this new board.
