That demand is not in a vacuum, it also depends greatly on price. Increasing prices will reduce demand, and thereby reduce viability.

Except that it is not that simple either, because prices don't live in a vacuum. Demand is also affected by people's ability to spend. People with insecure lifestyles are less likely to spend. People whose entire lives are spent working just to make a livable wage aren't likely to spend much beyond bare necessities.
