They are being made by smaller companies, the problem is that the so-called “demand” always has excuses as to why they don’t buy them. It was the same with small phones - many people claimed to want them yet the sales didn’t reflect that.
Well I would definitely buy a phone with a physical keyboard if I had any available around me. Years ago I even bought that moto Z phone that allowed attachable devices because they said there would be a keyboard for it - but they never released any.
The AI stuff I don’t mind as much as long as long as it remains being just software that I can disable.
Unfortunately buying is a much stronger signal than not buying. There could be many reasons why you didn’t buy a new phone vs the one reason you did buy a phone - you like it the most given your budget.

They have usb c keyboards for phones that just plug in at the bottom and the phone ends up looking like a blackberry

As someone who held on to the Pixel 4a for as long as possible, I feel like my demand should have been felt. Can’t speak for others.
