The BCM2712 is bigger than the 2711 even in D0 form, and you also need to add the cost of the RP1. Completely different architecture means completely different pricing, but still as low as we can get it. You are still getting a lot of horsepower for your money. 250% improvement in performance for 20% increase in price. Going back further, the Pi 5 is 150x faster than the P i1, and whilst there is no direct RAM equivalent, assuming a Pi 5 1GB if it existed would be around $45, that a $10 increase for 15000% improvement. Bargain.
And that's without taking general inflation into account.
