But why repurpose (which costs) failed microSD as cheap thumbdrive instead of selling them directly for cheap?

What is a strategy against it?

I bought an m.2 drive enclosure. It's bulky, but so damn fast. Plus it recycles old drives I've had lying around. Love it.

  • bulky compared to standard flash drive, still quite portable

Not OP but get Orico, they make good stuff.

Whatever enclosure you get, verify that it doesn't have a jmicron chipset, they're garbage.
