Now we have 8" vs 10.2" but the price is exactly the same....

I think it was more a matter of the 8" being a custom screen that caused the higher price, not necessarily just because it was larger. The 10.2" is also a custom screen.
The 8" screen also uses an entirely different display controller than the standard 6" screens. The 10.2" is using a modified version of the same controller that is in the 8". That's probably part of it too.
