Whilst this is definitely true, wouldn't the absence of necessary I/O hardware also cut costs on the chip?

Yes, they can cut costs on the chip and the I/O hardware if I remember correctly. Anyways, these costs are minimal compared to the enormous overall prices of these machines. It just seems like a silly idea to cut costs in an area where even 500$ Windows laptops offer a good functionality.
