Similar to how in, say, supermarkets where the number of brands of a product on the shelves may show a negative relationship with the number of sales.

Offer customers too many choices and they will become overwhelmed and not choose anything.

And the sad thing is that there are really big stores with a lots of stuff but you have to visit at least two of them to get whatever you want :(.

Another really bad supermarket practice is when a product have got 3 different flavoring and one of them is going well, but nobody buy the other 2. The result is that they will abandon the product totally, it doesn't matter that one of the flavors went really well.
