I doubt it - different market.
There is still a "product stack", you don't want to sell your HEDT (or SHEDT) too close to the top mainstream part or the top mainstream part may not sell etc.
AMD's stack seems to be pretty well spaced now. Obviously there are additional costs with HEDT such as motherboards and needing to populate more RAM, but the core CPU cost is likely a large factor in the purchasing decision - this will be even more true when lower core count TR SKUs appear. We may See the Ryzen pricing drop further.
AMD have more control over CPU prices than motherboard prices too of course.
