My understanding is that it’s not only a supply issue, but a suitability issue. Sapphire glass is very thin and scratch-resistant, but is not (likely due to its thinness) as impact-resistant as something like Gorilla Glass. I’ll note that for the new Apple Watches, two of the three lines use the sapphire glass, but the “sport” line will use a more traditional tempered glass, presumably because that model is more likely to be put into athletic situations where impacts are likely.
