>How does a high price benefit you

Reassurance that the company is actually trying to be sustainable.

All to often niche physical products get it into their head that they can break a mass market, hire sales people to get them into retail which all starts the cycle of lowering the price, compromising the vision then they wake up a year later, their product completely devalued, it's gathering dust on store shelves at best or being sold off a fraction of the price at worst and your customer base hasn't grown.

Happened to Roli in the same space.

Yeah, that makes sense. But then Rockslide should say "I hope they keep and don't compromise on their vision" rather than "I hope the prices stay the same or gets higher".
