Yeah, I love it when stores lure me in with products that I want, and then only have products that I don't want. I never rage-quit the store when that happens; I only ever buy dregs that they have in stock. I would love spending hours at a store browsing imaginary products that I can't buy; engagement is a perfect metric to predict profitability and the world needs a lot more than that.

All that said... if you change the contract a bit, it could work. Kinda like groupon, but people can browse AI-generated shoes and the most popular ones enter a tournament, and the winning design gets made for purchase. That could be pretty cool.
