I can see this playing into the constraints, to this end, perhaps there is efficiency to making the most out of a single system type and assembly? Also do you know how many machines it would take to outfit a reasonable demonstration scale facility? Is that number so large that it constrains the ability to just go that much further?

I'm not really sure about the answers to your questions, but it vaguely seems like the type of thing they'd want to go big on or not at all, for economies of scale. I also suspect they can get a better margin on each M1-based device selling them in consumer products.
