What's the argument, that someone else might make?

The idea behind the pieces in the first place was to create good, affordable furniture that most people could afford. A democratisation of design if you like.

Now though, when they’ve been trendy for ages the producers have increased prices beyond what even well off people can afford.

Explained better than I could to be honest.
Everything the Eames’ did was meant to be mass produced (using the latest tech) and therefore affordable, I think I even read somewhere that they were into the copies because they were aligned with that concept.
