That just sounds insane...

That sounds like the case. Having the car sit around is just a liability for ICBC so they just write it off. A ton of Teslas got written off for that reason a few years ago because they couldn't get parts.
As a consumer, do you want to have no car and your money tied up for 8 months to a year in a car you can't drive? Do you want to be stuck in a Kia rental if you were driving a BMW otherwise? Even if you drove a Rav4, the way the classing works you'd at best get something like a Kona sized midget which is hardly big enough if you need the size of the Rav4.
