Probably could:
1. don't use soldered ram
2. don't use soldered ssd
3. nobody needs or wants a T2 chip
4. use a standard UEFI booter
5. stop making accessories (including the iphone) that use lightning connectors. Use use usb-c
6. stop embedding chips in cords
7. stop using custom screws for everything
I know I'm missing a few, but these alone would make it far cheaper to manufacture without specialty components
