They realized that demand would exceed supply and most dealers would indeed sell out their allotments and that, more importantly, people would want to test drive the car prior to purchase. And for what its worth, my wife ensured both pre-orderers (that's not a word, right?) that they were expected to try the car before taking delivery and if they didn't like it, their deposits would be refunded no questions asked.

Where is your wife's dealership? In the GTA area seeing that you list you location Ontario(assuming Canada and not California)? Sounds like a place I would love to give my business to!
