How do you know nothing is selling, btw? Are you following every ad?
I’ve been following LVs for the last three years, as I seriously considered breaking my “one-watch” rule last year. I’ve passed on the LV, but follow them still. Yes, right now, they look like they’re all $12k plus, with the Flat Fours in the $20k+ range. Disconcerting. However, I just think there’s a bigger market for the LVs amongst new buyers and collectors than the 5711/5712. Different forces are driving LV prices. I’d be absolutely stunned to see a non-Flat Four hit $30k. I wouldn't, on the other hand, be surprised to see 5711/5712s go to $60k—assuming if PP does something with them in the near future, such as limiting supply or discontinues the models.

No, I don’t see every ad. However, anecdotally, I’ve got about 20 U.S. based flat fours saved in my Chrono. None have moved in a year.
