No one should buy these cards for the simple fact in the future nvidia will learn that these price marks don't sell. I have a 3090ti that I got on sale for $700 on best buy. I don't see the need to upgrade for 4% even if I have the cash. You can tell the long-term plan is to upgrade bits by bits. Consumers control prices by supply and demand. Let there be a lot of supply.

Honestly nearly everything you said applies to a boatload of various consumer products right now…between price gouging and shrinkflation, the smart move is to sit and refrain as much as possible and send a message to the profiteers.
