And surely a bed would be way more than double the price of an economy ticket, considering that business class is already often 5 times more expensive for long international flights.

Would depend a lot on the bed. If it was a narrow, double- or triple-stacked bunk, then it might not take up much more floor space than the equivalent number of economy seats.

What you're paying for in business class is the privilege of having a flat bed or a big comfy chair, on demand.
