They don't do it with the MacBooks either, just Mac Pros.

Literally every single Laptop Apple sells is branded as “MacBook”. Its really adds nothing to point out someone didn’t add the word “Pro” or “Air”.

Is that why Librem 5s cost 10x other phones with similar hardware?

This is why Librem 5 USA costs $2k. Original Librem 5 costs a lot for other reasons: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21656355.
