You're absolutely right. I was mostly referring to lower-end tires, where selling lots of replacement tires for flats could conceivably result in highter profits- but there is so much competition at that level that it is not a good business model.
Higher quality tires will get replaced by the same thing, usually- but they probably shouldn't go flat too often
