This is viral marketing to build a stodgy, old world reputation for the Infiniti brand. Its purpose is to shape consumer attitudes, not to be sold.

It's not meant for you. There are as of late a lot of really small car manufactures focusing on what I would call "alternative luxury vehicles". If you watch the Youtube Channel, JayLenosGarage, he features them quite regularly. It's meant to be nothing more than an expensive toy for grown men.

> Hell, I'm tired of extremely limited production cars (e.g. Hyundai Ionic electric, '17 e-Golf) that I can't reasonably get despite trying for months.

I've not heard of any problems around Europe of anyone struggling to order them. Are dealers literally unwilling to take an order, or is the delivery time just too long? Or is this about what cars dealers stock? At least here my impression has always been the only people buying cars from stock are those who are time-sensitive, and AFAIK they often go for a slight premium as a result.
