Honestly it’s really good to hear it’s not intentionally bad.

I wish there was a way to just download the catalog and query/search/sort it myself though.

That would be nice and not entirely without precedent, since you can download some of IMDB's catalogue (owned by Amazon since 1998.) However I suspect this feature is a vestigial remnant of IMDB's earlier days on Usenet.

There are other e-commerce sites: Sparkfun let you do this until a few years ago, I think you still can with digikey.
