Great, now I want to grill up burgers for dinner, but I won't be able to do that tonight.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I was just thinking about it from an Alton Brown-ish perspective.
Alton would never grind up a Kobe steak! Perish the thought!
Spidra, I honestly don't know what answer you're expecting to hear. If you disapprove of the sandwich, don't buy it.

I was just about to say something similar...
On an unrelated tack, the point of the sandwich is clearly to pick ingredients by their high cost
No, it's to pick the best ingredients irrespective of cost. There's a difference.
It really could go either way, right? If the idea is "let's make the most expensive _____ EVAH and get a bunch of write-ups" its probably the former.
I'm sure you don't grind up Kobe steak to make Kobe burger -- you grind up all the Kobe cuts you can't sell as steaks or roasts.
What Betsy Said. Even in Kobe, the cows (Cows!) have hooves and horns, and meat closer to them.

Quote from the sandwich creator:
He said: "I wanted to say 'If money was no object, what would you put in a sandwich?'.
"It wasn't just a case of using the most expensive produce, the flavours are exceptional, they marry really well.
"You get absolutely amazing taste from every level as opposed to a taste explosion."
Whether or not you believe him is a whole separate issue.
