Yeah. just googling the part number usually brings up several suppliers.
My point is I'd rather have a list so I could look at the list rather than googling 1000 parts numbers.
Mazda puts out a list of rerun or compatible parts.
So it is not unheard of.
But it is mostly fasteners and small obscure stuff.
Mazdatrix sort of has a list. Or they seem to have all the parts listed, and then say what's available.
It is a bit burdensome, still.

there is a list of FD parts in the back of the parts catalog, but its not in excel or any really usable format

shoot me a PM if you like, the newest one i have is 6/2017, in real life we just look in real time, if you went to a good dealership the guy would have asked for a vin, because the EPC will look up the right parts 99% of the time with the vin (vs 50% for the trained monkey), and then when they look up the parts you paste it into the availability screen and make sure they have it, and you have some idea of when you'd get it if the customer doesn't fall over with sticker shock.
this one time Kia used to have two ways to order parts, a normal order which took like a week, and overnight. Kia didn't charge to overnight stuff, but it also usually took a week to get the thing. so we'd have customers go, can you overnight it? and we'd say yes, but it might not be this night... or sometimes we go with Korea is further north, so the nights are longer....
