I also wonder if some of what I see is the result of changing habits around how people get rid of unwanted frames. Back in the day I would cruise eBay and would find plentiful quantities of 26er hardtail frames, and often good ones like the Rockhopper M4 superlight frames that I snagged three of one year. These days eBay feels like sort of a wasteland in that regard.
