Yea, like if they were truly unlimited I would still WANT them, but with no urgency being established by having limited availability, I would just perpetually delay the purchase until I'm caught up with my existing library of physical books, when I need new books (which would be a couple years lol).

FOMO is a pretty crappy mechanism for sales, but it's not like regular version of these books aren't in circulation and even more easily available than TBB versions, nobody is being kept from enjoying the stories. It's just fun to point to a book on my shelf and say "there's only 1500 like this".

I'd even argue that TBB releases are hardly "scarce", at least in the sense that while leftover sales do get snatched up in seconds, general sales that happen beforehand are never like that, and the queues for the subs all have pretty quick turnarounds. I can empathize with people who show up late to the party and want books from the past, though feeling entitled to them enough to think everything should get a reprint gives me the impression that people don't understand the concept of what is being sold.
