I don't see his current prototypes as having commercial value as the

Not at all, ever heard of replacement modules?
This is very common for many industrial, telecommunication and medical
equipment as repairs on site are to time consuming and require usually
to specialistic repair tools.
Therefore faulty modules are usually exchanged on site with new or
refurbished working ones. So the customer has a minimum period of the
equipment being out of order.
In the mean time the faulty modules are being repaired/refurbished at
the factory of the supplier. Of course this requires good and valuable
service contracts.
