Explain it to me as if I'm 5 years old. So do you really think PS5 wouldn't be sold out if scalpers weren't buying them?

My opinion, no. It definitely helps to sell out when scalpers scrap the shops clean and in this case, they did with both the PS5 and XSX. I don't think the Nvidia 30 Series cards would have sold out either. 

That's my opinion on the matter, we would never know because we are in a situation where we have this issue with stock. In the end, they did sell out, but is it to actual customers is the bigger question for me.

So please explain to me how if the console wouldn't sold out without scalpers how will the scalpers sell it for 2 or 3x the price?
