I've yet to meet someone that was out looking for an ioniq 6 and if the dealer doesn't have one they drive home the second choice car 2x-3x the price. That sounds like someone just throwing out words. The Mach-e is in the same ballpark though.
We're replacing a single Model 3 shared by myself (works from home) and my partner (commutes). I make due now by taking my motorcycles, but that has some significant inconveniences. My partner wants a mostly-boring, sensible car for commuting (the Ioniq) and I want something spicy (the Charger). The two cars have two very different purposes and intended price points. So to your point, you're making bad assumptions about intentions.
