This comes down to a failure of coordination by whoever is supplying the vaccines. If the central government provides clear guidance and commitments about when vaccines should be available and what kind of reserves, if any, are needed, then the local folks who are actually distributing the vaccines will know what to expect. The problem becomes when the central supplier (typically the federal/national government) becomes an unreliable predictor of future supply, in which case localities are left to fend for themselves.
The Israeli vaccination drive was reportedly going to slow down some in January because of lumpy supply; a pause itself is not unreasonable if you have clear forecasting for your supply (it's not clear if this is the case any longer, they were able to trade EMRs/phase IV trial data for increased supplies). In fact, it's a good thing if you're constrained by vaccine supplies rather than distribution/administration - there's no reason why the rate limiting factor should be distribution. So if supply is your limit, there needs to be clear communication and predictability in supplies. Without that forecasting and trust, you'll get hoarding.
I do not think that the solution to a hoarding problem is to change dosing schedules with little to no justification; the solution to hoarding is to address the actual problem, namely the trust local authorities have that promised doses will be delivered, on time.
