Compared to the Microchip chips the RP240 is seriously cheap silicon. IIRC Raspberry Pi used relatively old chip technology deliberately so that they could use the cheapest fabs. Bulk price was only $0.70 per chip bought direct even them - might be less now. The RP2350 is only $0.80 in bulk and that has a couple of RISC-V cores thrown in! :)
