It depends a great deal on what you call "a lot" and how many you are
making. The testing only needs to be done a few times initially and then
from time to time after that. The cost gets spread over many units.

So what exactly is your point? The one time cost of setting up the line
etc will be spread over many units. This makes it a lot less on a per
unit basis.

Your last part may not be needed. The maker need not compensate for the
totally incompetent working on it.

Skins is the lingo to describe the outside of the boxes.

I thought thickening was one of ways to enclose EMFs.

Not really. I have to unplug my stove to listen to AM radio.

How do you measure the EMF in "noisy" environments?
Or don't you need numbers anymore?

Think about it. The production line has to be designed so
that the process doesn't leave any seam untoned.

There is more to design of manufacturing and assembling than
laying out a circuit board by hand.

Boy, do I smell a rat. They had sextuplets without the services
of a fertility clinic?

IOW, they don't breed successfully.
