Could some middle-ground device exist where the lens is still manufactured for this use-case but still lower cost overall as the system has a high tolerance for quality/defects by implementing the calibration step?

Sounds reasonable. They basically proved that the worse possible lens they can manufacture can still provide the information they need. I have no idea what the size of the relative trade offs involved are - ie, if you loosen the tolerance of your lens manufacturing by X%, what increase in computation is required. Exciting times!
