A huge portion of why home prices dont fall is because most people dont pay for their homes up front, the actual cost of the home after the interest is 2x the total loan amount. So people dont want to sell for what they feel like is a loss.

I'd argue building more supply just makes the problem worse, since the builders almost always try to extract as much money from the potential buyers. With the internet and everyone reporting salaries most sellers price houses to extract as much money as possible included possibly expected "crypto" or other hidden sources of income.

The reality being we likely won't see a dip in home prices until the population holding homes ages out, saying there's a "housing crisis" is just spreading fear uncertainty and doubt to trick buys into unsatisfactory houses.
