Sales are artificial boosts yes. The difference is in the connotation. A sale is given for something that people generally would buy anyway, but now more people will. An artificial boost is given to stuff nobody wants, but at a lower price can be convinced to buy.
Or in other words, sales raise $high_number to $higher_number while artificial boosts raise $essentially_zero to $acceptable_number.

Your claim is that people that bought the cybertruck at a lower price don’t actually want it?
I believe the claim is that the demand side did not change, the supply side did, as in sales != demand.

People do want it, clearly, but it's too expensive for them.
Sales don't make people want things they otherwise don't.

That is exactly what sales do. most sales are made sellings things to people they don’t want, until sales does what sales does
