No, it doesn't. I concur the author glossing over previous supply issues, but again that's because manufacturing prowess is not the point of the article. You're just reading way too much into a very brief article, written by some random financial blogger who rarely even covers the publishing industry.

As to Amazon's press releases, they aren't doing anything different from any other competitor. No one is releasing numbers, and everyone is spinning whatever news, information, marketing and PR as they can to their advantage.
