About the “wanting” you to roam. I don’t know if it’s practice everywhere, but my old supermarket reshuffled their sections every year or so (not majorly, just a little but) to make you look again for the product you wanted and encourage you to try out new stuff you hadn’t noticed before. While I felt it was a hit manipulative, yes, supermarkets want to you search for items.

    I did this job once long ago... but it has more to do with the companies and how much they paid to have a certain amount of space and at what level, and to add and remove new products... but yeah sometimes they just moved a whole section to another isle that wasn't fun...
