To actually put some numbers to the argument, literal aircraft grade bolts from spruce and specialties or spencer are super handwavy about twice the retail cost of similar low/single quantity bolts sold at home depot. I've done a couple ham radio antenna projects where I don't wanna climb up there again anytime soon nor do I want to clean up a failure and literal aircraft grade fasteners are surprisingly cheap and available and extremely reliable. Good enough for a 747, good enough to hold up my ham radio antenna.
With modern technology, trace ability and all that is really not that expensive for commodities. Returning to the topic, it would be predictable if OPs re-invention of the concept of generic drugs were maybe 1/10th the price of name brand. Oddly enough that's not unusual for generic pharma to be shockingly cheaper than name brand. The real question is why aren't generic overdose drugs incredibly cheap? I would guess profiteering, but who knows. Maybe they're not shelf stable, perhaps extremely temp or UV sensitive?
