Thanks! (Strong-upvoting for going against the conventional wisdom here, being polite, and willing to back it all up with discussion. I really hope you are right.)
Is that true? If not, when did large-scale production begin? I guess I want to know what sub-process took 10 months. Was it that they needed 10 months to build the new factories to build the vaccine, because old factories couldn’t be repurposed? Was it that old factories could be repurposed but need new equipment which couldn’t be 3D printed but had to be made in a traditional assembly line which needed to be purpose-built?

OK, here goes: This diagram makes it seem that large-scale production only began after Phase II completed: https://www.ema.europa.eu/en/human-regulatory/overview/public-health-threats/coronavirus-disease-covid-19/treatments-vaccines/covid-19-vaccines-development-evaluation-approval-monitoring
