With production delays, tariffs & scalpers who knows when stock will return and what price, which makes this an ok deal, I guess.

Don't think so? Look at the markup people are paying when stock is scarce. It easily goes up about 100 bucks or so over MSRP.
It's like that with anything. SD shouldn't have some hard and fast rule regarding retail pricing when it comes to things that are in high demand.
The initial driver was crap, even had problem playing YouTube video and benchmark showed NO improvement from RX850. Reading online it turns out that ARC B580 have some issue with older Ryzen CPU and I was running Ryzen 5 3600.
So, after couple months of driver update and I picked up a Ryzen 7 5700X3D on used market, much better now. Here are my Cinbench R23 numbers.
2024-12-23: 8138 RX850 & Ryzen 5 3600
2025-03-29: 8190 Arc B580 & Ryzen 5 3600 (no improvement)

Firing up your external GPU actually will cause your system to use more power most of the time.
You can upgrade for 128GB of RAM for very little....so RAM use is not a big deal.

There is just no way I could ever justify buying an external graphics card for a system that did not need the processing power ...but just to save RAM usage.
