Uh, yes? Food and consumer electronics are larger or similar scale to fashion and undamaged goods for both are landfilled at massive/similar rates to clothing.
Books are the same logic as apparel, "print more than needed, pulp what doesnt sale". Its just much smaller.
Food is perishable, clearly we can’t force manufacturers or shops to keep unsold perished stock.
Unsold electronics aren’t destroyed on a seasonal basis to make room for a new collection.
Same goes for books… and pulp from booms can create new paper to print new books on
