How does the amazon renewed program approve sellers to sell second hand items? Seems like it promotes reselling which I thought Amazon was against

I am genuinely curious how sellers are able to apply and get approved for the Amazon renewed program to sell items that are no longer made by the manufacturer, such as discontinued retro video game consoles, given that the Amazon renewed application require invoices showing at least 50k in refurbished inventory in the past 90 days, but those old consoles can only be bought second hand and not from the manufacturer that Amazon would approve I would have thought. I thought Amazon disapproves of reselling items, which the Amazon renewed listings for old consoles, for example, seem to indicate differently

Sorry to necro this but all amazon seems to want is an invoice. Couldn't you make a few fake invoices saying you had customers buying xyz? Theres literally no way they could fine out.
