This.
Literally every day I get a cust asking "but WHY isn't there any ...insert literally anything... available, I want it now, because I want it."
Most listen to my well rehearsed 30 second whirlwind information dump about why a niche industry is struggling during the worlds worst pandemic/economic implosion, and then update their tone to 'oh thanks, well, keep me informed and I won't pester you any more'. But you get the odd one who goes off at the deep end, as apparently its my fault for not stocking that obscure mech hanger that you've broke. These people are getting rarer though, which is a relief!
I work at an R&M dealer - The delay is 100% Covid totally shagging every step of the production process. It's not just the P70s that are delayed, pretty much everything has been pushed back at least once.
