No i dont. And if others missed them that badly they would still be sold.

People don't want to pay multiple thousands more for a color, when the manufacturer would rather enshittify their selection to save a buck.

Because that's exacly how marketing works... And, also, surely business only sell what the market is already being used to buy...

You can manufacture almost any demand if you are large enough...

Just look at latest example of Apple iPhone. Pretty sure that before 2020 you would say that "people don't like colors on iPhones", but it just so happened there was not even a choice for colors... Go ask around iPhone users nowadays what is their preferred iPhone color... Pretty sure colored iPhones will be one of their preferred in more than 33% of the instances. You can't say that a negligible marketshare.
