Ride Height (Air Bag Inflation) and Adaptive Variable Suspension (AVS Shocks) have nothing to do with the other ...
Yes, IMHO the AVS Shock replacent cost is criminal for what the AVS system represents in terms of benefit over conventional shocks.

Lots of opinions on this subject ... all over the map ... I ditched AVS Shocks on a GX470 and GX460 and replaced with Bilstein 5100's ... huge improvement in handling, steering response, reduction in body roll ... etc ... about $500 for the shocks plus labor for installation. The rear shocks are about 30-odd minutes labor per side for replacement ... probably rounded up to 1-hour per side at a dealership.

$177 each from Partsouq. Order the mounts and you can install them yourself in minutes. I've been running them for over a year now and they are fine.
