This probably has more to do with the uncertain economic outlook. I'm not necessarily referring to the Russian invasion..I'm referring to the current inflation and coming rate hikes. They are fully aware the demand will probably drop some....no one knows how big that drop will be. The last thing they want to do is to get caught with a bunch of money tied up in IP, engineering and parts they can't move. Smart for them to slow downs and take a breather and see where things go. This is not about listening to the consumer....it's about their bottom line and long term projections, which is not necessarily a bad thing.

They run 2 physical lines in the plant, but they are not duplicates. They have different tasks set for each station. They will often run one pin on one line and a different pin through the other stations.....thus working on 2 or more themes at the same time.\
