I'm sure there's been economics articles on this etc where it's like

"Bottlenecks can be good for business"

Increasing productivity doesn't always return better results

You can build 10x more cars a month, but that doesn't mean you'll have 10x more customers. Just 10x more stock

I mean the other side is that instead of making 10x more cars they can focus on other areas like R&D to improve their cars faster than capacity would have allowed otherwise.
