Why Are True Wye PVC Connectors So Hard To Find???

I need a True Wye PVC connector and am having a hell of a time finding them. I need one that is 1-1/4" x 1" x 1". The closest I can find is a 1.5" x 1" x 1" and I can only find it on this site which I have never heard of and will come out to about $12 after shipping.

This seems like it'd be a common part, why are they so hard to find?
 
I don't know where one of those would be used in normal situations... I also don't think 1-1/4" is a common used size, but that could be wrong.

I would probably just use the 1.5" x 1" x 1" and put the larger pipe as long as possible instead of 1.25" and bush it down to whatever you need later. Or just bush the 1.5" down at the fitting. Or use the 1.25" x 1.25" x 1.25" and bush those outlets down to 1" wherever.
 
1.25" is not a common size, and wyes are not used often in smaller diameters; they are most often used for DWV pipes which generally start at 1.5"
