Yes, it's a pity.

A carbon tub, despite being "so exotic" is just a kevlar honeycomb carbon-fibre sandwich... It's not impossible, certainly something us 'strayans can do.

There are ways to do it cheaper, such as just a "flat pack" approach, cutting v-notches and folding it into shape and inserting carbon tubes along the folds instead of using a mould.
