The reduction in cost will be thru innovations. An artificial pancreas from a 3D printer could have insulin suppliers shaking in their boots. One day we will grow nerves and arteries. The WOW is not 40 years away

By the time it is perfected they will have found a way to make it expensive to install, in the interests of progress (Profit)

Be Well

Now, now , we can't always be cynical, can we? Remember the first electrical games like Atari's PONG, heck that game is practically a freebie today. Day one you are correct but in short order the better mouse trap will be stem cells through a low cost injection. The uncanny cells know what to do without man's two-cents input or is that mark-up?

Back in the day when I was fitish We had a family business and was asked to make a small cabinet for a hospital which we did the one off and charged them £40.00. At the time a company had a exclusive contract to supply these and they made 100's and charged £200.00 each! I except we need profit to exist and grow but!
