When you add up people’s time to design and test, absolutely. Could have crossed $100,000 and it would be a teaspnable cost. Wouldn’t want to half ass a space poop bag.
This how it works in any business, R&D is high but businesses tend to spead that cost out per item when massproducted. One off or limited uses are always far more than mass production.
And that bag cost tens of thousands of dollars to design!
