The medical stuff will get cheaper for sure if it doesn't need all the expensive certifications, supply chain surveillance etc

The issue is a bit different than you seem to think (and tbh, different than I accidentally wrote earlier). Lab-grown meat needs to grow in the absence of bacteria and other foreign cells which grow a lot faster than meat cells. Hence, the issue is not capex for the tooling alone, but how to scale up sterile processes in huge vessels.
