Of course, you'd probably be challenged to cobble together the associated components (case, power supply, motherboard, radiator, cooling block, etc.) for anywhere near this price. However, as an example of the hidden costs of the system, the SFX power supply is generously sized and has a solid feature set... but would also be much more expensive to replace than an ATX solution (currently around $150 for an SFX model vs. $100 for a comparable ATX model). Similarly, AM5 isn't exactly the platform around which anyone is building bargain-priced solutions (AMD continues to release AM4 CPUs to remain competitive in the lower price tiers).
I'd recommend updating the listing to note that this setup includes a complete water cooling solution. I am surprised that this critical feature doesn't appear to be clearly documented in the Micro Center listing.

For those who always envied water cooled PC designs, particularly a hard line tubing design, this could be a bargain basement price to make your dream come true. Otherwise there's really no "deal" here for anyone seeking PC bang-for-buck nirvana.
Good luck!

You're trying to argue otherwise, but you're making yourself look like a clown instead.
You are moving goalposts by first saying the water cooling adds no value when it's essentially free (the $130 Lian Li case this uses doesn't come with it standard), then by saying there's no value in the labor because you can do the work yourself, then by saying the individual parts can be acquired for less if you want to sit on your hands for months.
What's next?

It just takes a CNC mill, laser cutter/water jet, raw materials, and 50+ hours of design, tooling, and assembly.

At this price, anything extra you need to buy is heavily offset by the discount.
If you buy this combo, you'll spend $410 for a 7700x and 32gb RAM or $460 for a 7800x3d and 32gb ram. Added to this case/psu/cooler, you're spending $710-760 for the setup.
The combos are $400 or $500. An air cooler is $25-40. There are extremely diminishing returns past the $35 thermalright assassin, air coolers are all more reliable than liquid, and there's no performance penalty. If you run high end Intel chips or like water cooling, that's fine, but this is an AM5 board, and this is a deals site, so I feel like price/performance is worth pointing out.
So you're at $435 or $535 with the mobo/cpu/ram/cooler, and you have $275 or $235 to spend on a case and power supply before you hit the cost of this setup. You can catch some deals or buy used and save a lot of money for the same performance. That's all I'm saying.

I actually don't really care about saving money, other than that I always felt a water-cooled setup. was prohibitively expensive. at this part of my life I feel like I'm okay with doing something simply because I feel like I've always wanted it

I'm not 100% sure that the included CPU block will have thermal paste. You'll probably want some better thermal paste anyway, or extra if you have to troubleshoot the cpu block's seating etc. That's only like 8 bucks.
If you want to cool a GPU, you'll definitely need more tubing, more fittings, and a water block compatible with that specific GPU. This will probably run you about $200 minimum.
