This would be a valid observation if the problem was that Basic units were clogging the pipeline while Premiums were hard to come by, but that's not the case. I don't see how the situation would have been helped at all by only having the more expensive Premium SKU.
We do know that the Premium bundles are selling significantly better than the Basic ones, so unless you have data regarding the types of units lying around, I have a slight evidence advantage. Granted, I'm not an exec at Nintendo and can't verify it, but it's as good a theory as any.
