There’s a pretty cool kids show in Germany (Sendung mit der Maus) and in one of the last sequels they showed how the customized seat padding for a wheelchair is made. And that involves a shit-ton of back and forth, measuring, cnc-cutting, fine tuning, adjusting and all of it mostly one-off manual labor with expensive machiner. I’m certain someone is making money off that, but given the amount of highly specialized labor that went into this, I believe 2200 USD is reasonable. (If you run the math, that’s roughly 2-3 days of work for an engineer that earns 250k, without even considering all attached costs)
