In this context Larianize must mean stay true to the original game.

In all versions of BG vendors dealt only in gold.
Even at 1st level the minimum price at Winthrop's store in the original BG for any item be it sling, club, arrows, darts or quarterstaff, was 1 gold.

You misunderstood what I was saying: Larianized means needlessly bloated and not reflective of the actual price of items as presented in D&D manuals.

I completely understood what you were saying.
You just completely missed the point that Larian didn't change BGs monetary standard.
In all versions of Baldur's Gate the vendors have dealt only in Gold.
In all versions of BG the designers have adjusted the prices of mundane items to cost much more than the prices that were listed in the D&D manuals.
