That’s nice, but clearly not how the majority of the purchasing departments work right now, correct? And if most people don’t buy that way - then it isn’t easy to get solid equipment that can do things that way - which makes it hard to get the equipment you need. |

The question was about what the company can do, talking about external constraints, so I don't really care how purchasing departments work for that topic.

For smaller companies, yes. Except the argument was that smaller companies could get them already, while Amazon would exhaust the world supply.
Once we move into the realm of companies that make their own markets, it doesn't matter what "most people" do. Those companies can make their own choices and get whatever they want made.
