Do people chase what’s unavailable out of desire or because scarcity triggers obsession?

It certainly triggers curiosity. But in some cases it also triggers that "challenge" center, like the gal who is unattainable who guys suddenly all want to chase. The "mystery" or lack of access makes the woman more desirable and guys instinctively want that "rare" woman for their own. It's a little silly to a logical person however it is what it is.

Some people. Some people also genuinely feel envious they get off to it because it’s wrong being with someone in a relationship or in some power dynamic. Also the sense of despttint someone’s relationship is powerful to them.

But even for someoem whose single and not interested. Its not normal to become obsessed to stalker level. No

Probably both, although I don't think scarcity triggers obsession so much as it triggers anxiety or fear of missing out.

I think both but maturity comes in understanding what you want may not necessarily be attainable and that's ok.

I think some people see that as a challenge.

The second one. Scarcity.
