Exactly. I'll bet the same dimwit at Nvidia who set the pricing for the 4080 16gb was also behind the 4080 12gb fiasco which they withdrew.
The 16gb card will go down to $999 sooner or later when they realize its badly priced. The 4090 so far is the only card that makes sense in their pricing lineup.

Seems like a bizarre pricing strategy, a bit more gets you a 4090, a bit less gets you a 7900xtx.

Well has been stated that Jenson typically prices thing as he is just about to jump on stage.
Maybe he thought this would fly.
AMD surely scuppered that idea.

The only time a 4080 would make sense (over a 4090) is if you needed something physically smaller. Well, this thing ain't really smaller than a 4090, so it really is a pointless product.

Anyone spending $1300 on a GPU would certainly just get a 4090, right? It's literally $300 difference for a lot more performance. This 4080 card is a piece of crap.
