I am not finding this to be true with all manufacturers. Due to difficulties in getting chipsets some manufacturers have had to reduce their selection of products. Many of AMX's all-in-one presentation switcher/controllers were recently discontinued. They went from 12 models down to 2. Many of Crestron's All-In-One presentation switcher/controllers were also discontinued. They are claiming this was due to chip shortages and other supply chain issues. They went from 5 models down to 2. Some of QSC's Q-Sys all-in-one DSP/Controllers were also recently discontinued due to chip shortages and other supply chain issues. Those were their Core 100f (replaced with Core 110f v2 with reduced features) and their Core 510i. Cisco on the other hand has increased their selection of Room Series all-in-one VTC Codec products that include  the codec, cameras, microphones and speakers.
