In paint, the expensive stuff is the pigment. This is also what gives
the paint body and coverage (as in covering another color paint so you
don't see it).

Nonsense. All pigment is added to the base can, regardless of color or
amount of pigment added, for free. The expensive part is the acrylic, and
100% acrylic paint will always be more expensive. If you buy the base white
or add a bunch of pigment to it, it's the same cost.
