Adding another line is very expensive, involving large expensive equipment and possibly a new building to house it. Hopefully this is a temporary shortage brought on by hoarding. Spending all that money to increase production isn't worth the risk of having to shut it down when the hoarding stops.

McMillan gave us that same story several years ago, and they're still running months and months behind.....
...and the hoarding is still going on. It looks like a very reasonable answer to me.
