I think you’re confused between legal and public relations.

The grocery store can legally double the price of bread absent any good reason, but people will flip out.

They didn’t flip out when that exact thing happened during the pandemic, because “it’s the supply chain” made enough sense to people they accepted it.

The pandemic gave them a new way to “increase prices without losing customers” for a while.
