This really isn't bad. $0.10 / brick is the rough average for Lego sets, with licensed IP sets running higher and bulk sets of basic bricks running lower (this 790 piece bin is about $0.08 / brick). Some of the Star Wars sets run close to $0.15 / brick.
This set is about $0.11 / brick.
I was going to comment the same but I also feel like this metric gets less and less useful the further in time we go since they're just filling sets with tons of 1x1 size pieces now which increases fidelity and piece count but still leaves you with a tiny set that costs $130.
Ah, hmm, Lego shrinkflation?
