Here, again, the use of parchment for the folios plays a key role.
Paper would have been available and was considerably cheaper already.
Paper was considered by many to be inferior to parchment.
So, one may suppose that the person who created the MS had resources, and also an intention that the MS would be preserved for posterity.
Alternatively, that it "looked" expensive / valuable.
