They are only going to need a few dozen of these to start with, not exactly high quantity production. I'm not sure at all about the cost difference for the GMP level parts, but in any case you are quite right that at the prototyping stage why spend more for production level parts when the design is not yet cast in concrete. GMP also is about having all processes nailed down and documented with all t's crossed and that part also mitigates toward bringing in GMP expert consultants, I believe. Doesn't seem like it should be that big of a deal and indeed they haven't allocated too much time for it. But they do need to do final level very rigorous and well-documented testing as well with everything super well documented for an approval package and inspection.
