My opinions are based on my experience in the suppressor industry as both an enthusiast and a retailer.

No, not rocket science. But they help increase the cost.

First, $500 is MSRP. Most places aren't going to charge anywhere near MSRP for a Sparrow.
I agree with you that the prices are too high for what you're actually getting. But they're too high because of how the BATFE process affects the market prices of silencers, NOT because the companies have joined together to charge artificially high prices just to screw consumers.
