I think the more doubles sold to anyone, the more of a market will be developed and maybe "mainline" companies will start to consider the whole double rifle market as being worthwhile to pursue.
I actully think there may be a bunch of truth to this.
There is potentially huge interest in double rifles of usable quality at an affordable price.
The key to success or not, will be how much of standards will have to be traded for reducing the price.
If they look awful or worse simply don't shoot well enough they will flounder not doubt.
If in useful medium cartridges - great.
If in big bores, the issue will be over loading pressure for the un-initiated. Witness all the guys wanting to immediately rechamber .45/70's to .450 NE.
If a .450/400 was available in a 'cheap' double that would be a huge success.
