I think you're exactly right. It makes me wonder what the actual development, testing and manufacturing costs for it were. Clearly there was some tooling made, see the castings.
Also makes me wonder if we'll start to see some laser-sintered components start to appear in low-volume production. Something like a plenum is an annoying thing to build without going to a casting, unless you 3D print it. With SLS in the mix I wonder where the unit break-even cost is, and whether it would change the testing/material certification chain significantly.
