I admit I don't know. Situations like this often seem to me like chicked-and-egg problems, where producers say "we have to make what people buy, and people buy X", while consumers say "if it isn't in the shop, I can't buy it, and the shops usually only have X".
Producers make more complicated decisions. They also care about marketing and branding.
If it's worth saying, but not worth its own post (even in Discussion), then it goes here.
