Makes sense

This does make sense. It's not them whining. They just wanted to support a German company before. It's no longer German so why not save a few dollars and keep the money in the local economy?

I am not American and I avoid American products if there is a local alternative. Having said that, I do purchase some American products and have no problems with it.
