the article believes they should cost $10 though

They probably would if they were made in china, and sold in Walmart by the millions.

tbh the only solution to the problem is to spend the $250,000 it would probably cost in tooling etc and fill the Boeing ~1,000 order and sell another 99,000 to the public. At $10 each and without paying yourself anything you would probably just about break even.
