True from the facility side we can't affect the production cost. That would be a nice ability.

You can do this in a roundabout way from the component side by extending the tech tree and adding higher level components that are cheaper, but have the same abilites. Already done in the stock game with engines. No reason other than extra complexity the same thing couldne't be done with other components.
