I produce a some what similar Eurorack module. Ours is electrically more complicated, but mechanically much simpler.
The final assembly is the most labor intensive part of our process. When we get an order from one of our retailers for 10+ products, it takes us a full day just to build/test/pack, because of this.
By selling these as "Ikea style" I promise they're able to massively reduce the cost for consumers by outsourcing their assembly.

This suggests some sort of contract manufacturing. Their products are also already expensive themselves so it would really make sense to spend a lot of resources designing something to save on shipping or manufacturing. For IKEA it does because they have very large volume and small margins.
