Apple has not historically been one to skimp on power supply costs, to the contrary the supplies they provide are some of the highest quality I've seen in terms of build quality and part selection.
The actual problem is more one of form factor. Apple has a certain expectation for size/weight/usability of their laptop supplies and meeting those goals with a 150W supply just isn't realistic.
