I don't think it's a boner over withholding flavors.

It's likely a profit boner. Margins on obscure flavors aren't projected to be high enough in whatever market, so they don't offer it. But in some other market, projections look good, so they offer it.



And something can be profitable for importers and not worth it for the company, additional tracking, stocking, etc.

Much simpler to have a few flavors shipped to millions of stores daily.
