so when am I going to be able to walk into a shop, go into a change room, strip to my underwear, and get a 3D laser scan of my body, that then gets used by clothing companies X Y and Z (of my choosing) to custom-cut clothing that fits me precisely?

It's not that the technology doesn't exist yet, it does.

Is the bottleneck at the factories? Too expensive to incorporate/replace existing mass production equipment?

Whoever jumps first, is going to have a huge 1st mover advantage.
