I talked to a CivE who works a lot with trades and they told me they'd never seen anything like it. Sometimes a job will need a lot of something and go buy out a store or two, but a lot of wrench sizes (and other tools) weren't available for purchase in the city at all; they'd never seen so many things unavailable.
I don't think wrench availability by itself is particularly interesting, but I find it interesting how many supply chains were too fragile/intricate to be fixed in "only" 2-3 years.
