Yeah, great points. Economies of scale have not kicked in, and I'm sure there are plenty of inefficiencies with the technologies they're currently using.

It would be neat to know precisely what parts are expensive. Broad generalizations about how prices on goods go up and down aren’t quite as interesting. 😅

CliniMACS plus/prodigy, LOVO, G-Rrex and other expensive instruments.

Grade B suites with grade A BSC's and all the trained personnel to work on it.

Shit costs a lot of money.
