One of the things Apple has always excelled at has been the creation of demand; sometimes false demand by constricting its own supply chain.  

Big Macs sell in the MILLIONS. I guess it's because McDonalds decides to limit orders.
(there goes your analogy)

I think his "analogy" was intended to point out that the easily obtainable is less fascinating.
('Less fascinating' doesn't mean it doesn't still sell - I rarely equate being fascinated with being hungry...
and no one's ever asked me, while buying a new iPhone, if I wanted fries with that...)

I used to think Microsoft did this, but now I can see that the notion of deliberately losing sales just to claim your product is popular is so ridiculous that no company would do it. 

Unless, perhaps, you were utterly sure of:
a) recapturing those sales eventually anyway, and/or
b) creating the sort of aura and buzz around your products generally that could only further your success.
(btw, that template probably wouldn't work for most other companies, e.g. MS)

2) I'd love to get in-earphones that have the same technology, weight, and volume of AirPods -or- see an earthodontist so he can slowly mold my ear cartilage to fit AirPods perfectly.

Well, sorry to be snotty, but, it serves you right for not having your ears designed by Johnny Ive...
