Because the benefit of plot protection is that it keeps you from needing to *replace* the item, which does scale. A promise you won't lose it is arguably a bigger advantage for a starship that consumed all your assets in the first place than it is for a $5 pocket knife. You can argue it either way, and personally I prefer a flat cost per item, but it isn't actually ridiculous to scale with price.
