They've definitely been fighting the new restrictions, but they've also hedged their bets and withdrawn warranties and DJI Care in the U.S. They see the writing on the wall.
Why are all of these lately being sold only by 3rd party sellers
Mainstream retailers have stock from time to time. My understanding is the supply issues have been primarily due to CBP. Perhaps the third parties have methods of dealing with them that the mainstream retailers can't or won't replicate...
Cause of the Import ban on all DJI drones that went into effect a few days ago I believe
It's not a ban on current drones, it's a statement that the U.S. isn't going to approve any new drone models going forward. You can still buy a Mini 5 Pro or Air 3S and it will work fine. You just won't be able to buy the eventual Mini 6 Pro. The lack of availability has been ongoing since spring and is mostly due to DJI abandoning the U.S. market.

I bought the same model over a year ago turned around and sold it for $100 or more I didn't even open the box. When I found out the controller was not compatible with the newer drones. I now have an RC2 mini 5 Neo 1.2 Flip And they all work with the new RC2 controller not this controller in the listing unfortunately.

Considering the campaign they've waged against the new restrictions, that doesn't look like abandonment to me.

Bought this as my first drone last year. It's pretty great but it doesn't have obstacle avoidance, and I've broken it 2-3 times already. Luckily I got the insurance for it, but if for some reason insurance is no longer available, I'd probably upgrade to one with the obstacle avoidance cameras instead.
