Bambu in full panic mode knowing these will be unsellable very soon. So much competition puts this to shame for the price.
What compares?

Most people don't want the printer itself to be the hobby. They are getting better, cheaper and easier to use and learn. I compare it to the Iphone of printers - fairly intuitive even if it's a bit older tech. It's also enclosed, which helps with noise, humidity issues and some filament off gassing.
I've had my X1C for 2.5 years and it has been stellar. I have various nozzles from .2 to .6, but haven't tried the .8 yet. I mostly print Star Wars droids for cons, larger models and useful things, like frog ladders for my pool.
I use the AMS to change filament for large prints, not for color. The AMS 2 does driy filament, which my V1 doesnt. However, the Sunlu dryer attachment is cheaper so I pre-ordered it instead of upgrading to the 2.
The only downside I've seen has been the elitist jerks, hardcore fanboys and extreme haters in social media - but for every one of them, you find at least 4-5 of us that simply enjoy it's ease of use.
Look, I'm just gonna say it -- you're highly exaggerating right now, and Bambu doesnt have a ton of competition. You make this sound like a cut-throat industry. It's the opposite. Maybe tone that statement down a bit, because it's basically false.

Everything being released now has multiple tool heads and bigger print area.
Everything.............such as.....? Hell its 256x256x256 which is right in line with competition.

Nobody is using an X1C for what it was made to be used for. They use it to print multi filament waste. Every printer released this year does that better and faster and with less waste. Everything release this year is multihead with no waste and bigger print beds. This is a bad price for a product that is being cleared out at a price that isn't low enough when the P1S is noticeably cheaper and fully as capable.
