There is nothing new about that at all.
I work for a company that would much rather sell product to end customers at full price than to keep a portion of our limited production output to ourselves for no revenue at all. It probably shouldn't surprise many people that we would rather keep customers happy by delivering on the promised schedule while taking in a lot of money from them for the privilege, and finding other ways to satisfy the internal need, such as sharing with other teams that might already have what is needed.
TBF I'm referring to our product that we only make about 3,000 of a year; and each one has been spoken for for a few years already and costs about a quarter-million per copy, so all things may not be equal.
