Expect to see wired-in LED systems in household lamps where the fixture must be replaced because the bulbs cannot be. Expect to see the fixtures sold to builders with non-replacable bulbs will cost the builder only slightly more when bought in huge quantities but the homeowner will be faced with $1000 lamp fixtures should they ever need or desire to replace them.
I am not concerned. The free market will take care of your hypothetical issue. Some one will buy huge replacement quantities and sell individual fixtures at a fair mark up.
