I’d understand them not keeping spares of larger parts at the garages due to space issues, but I’m confused they wouldn’t have something like spare O-rings around (one is stopping my car from getting fixed/tested and the garage told me there’s been a shipping delay).

I know your frustration. My car once sat for two weeks waiting for O-rings because those particular O-rings are made of a special material, viton, and you can’t just use any old O-ring. I have an O-ring assortment kit in my shop, but I regularly have to go get a different one because the particular thickness is not in the kit.
