Try to actually buy the 3090 RTX anywhere.

It's out of stock just about everywhere and the few places that you can get it have scalpers charging thousands for it.

A standalone GPU that consumes multiple times more power than the M1, is a massive brick of hardware and is impossible to get for most consumers performs better? Shocking.

3090s are in stock now, for example Best Buy and direct from EVGA.

That’s a very disingenuous take on “in stock”. Sure, if you’re willing to pay multiples of MSRP, major retailers will now take your money too and not just let scalpers only get in on the profits.
