Just like the current rpis, you won't be able to. But businesses will.
Rpi is a for maximum profit company now, it's not about supplying boards to hobbiests, it's about supplying boards to industry
No it didn't. The stock problem will be considered "cleared up" when you can wander into a Microcenter any day of the week and grab one, and that is very much not the case yet. At my local Microcenter, they're still selling out within hours of receiving a shipment (and they're only receiving like one shipment a month).
That mostly depends on the thoughts on profitability by the microcenter, not necessarily on general availability.
Sadly not so much on the CM4, which is what a lot of people are after these days.
Seem to be plenty of special-purpose bring-your-own-Pi carrier boards (like the Home Assistant "Yellow") that people haven't been able to get CM4s for in going on a year at this point.
