Only because they didn't know how to ask the vendor to do it for them.

I guarantee this vendor would be delighted to make them to spec at a 1ku volume, max. Rewinding isn't even a meaningful SKU distinction or line retool, it's a configuration parameter.

At 12 motors per product, it's easy to hit MOQ.
