Do we think Google will ever get a new stock of replacement Pro 2 buds?

This last November I got my Pixel Buds Pro 2 through the Google Store using credits I got for purchasing my Pixel 10 Pro XL. I was very happy with them and have one in my ear 3-4 hours a day on my PC or phone listening to podcasts or audible. A couple weeks ago I lost my right one either in gravel or knee high grass (It's long gone). And still to this day google is out of stock of replacement right earbuds for purchase. I usually only use one at at time (right one, preferably) so it hasn't stressed me too much waiting for new stock - until today.

It turns out you can't pair to a new device without two earbuds being in the case. And I didn't know that before installing a fresh copy of Windows on my PC I previously used the buds with every day. At least for the time being the one bud will still pair with my phone but now I am actually stressing if they will even get a new supply of replacements. It seems like a bad sign even the most recent colors are out of stock. And what a waste that it all essentially becomes useless if my phone becomes unpaired for some reason. I'd have spent that $229 of store credit on something else had I known.
