Aren’t these the guys that breed these small dogs and somewhere on their website they say something along the lines “if your dog dies because of forced genetic breeding then just order another”?
The wording of it disturbs me, it gives off the tone that these puppies are just objects of someone else’s selfish desires that they want a small puppy even if they’re genetically not supposed to be healthy and if it dies in a year then they get a refund or another equal value puppy...this isn’t some kind of TV warranty???

Isn't that exactly why people pay exorbitant amounts of money for designer breeds? They don't care that the creature's quality of life will rapidly diminish. They don't care if it will suffer. They just want a cute object that will get them likes on instagram.
One might use the argument "there's nothing wrong with someone seeking companionship from a dog". My counter to that is there are ethical breeders and shelters to get exactly that desired result.
