I agree.... and actually consider this:
Logically speaking the data I have shown shows that Wiis were produced during summer and fall months and didn't make it to consumers until December. This doesn't actually imply where these units were held up, by who, and for how long, etc... So in reality this data only allows a generic "there was stockpiling at some point" conclusion and saying who it was stockpiled by is actually not possible without further data.
