How do you keep a screen printing shop from just selling your merch for cheaper than you? In your hypothetical they'll always be able to undercut you since they don't have to support anything but screen printing business with the profits while you have to fund art production?

The main point is that every avenue of monetizing art is create something that isn't your art that is scarce and then sell that. Why not just have a system where you can make the art itself scarce?
