The idea of a US made 300B is fine, but the market for the more in demand 6L6 makes a lot more sense for their first tube as long as it is actually a better mouse trap. The 300B has already been tried several times, including resurrecting the old Westrex staff and I don't think that even worked very well.
They're trying to build a business, and it certainly makes more sense to target the larger market first. It's not like they would be selling thousands of 300Bs a month, while they might be able to do that with 6L6 variants even with the off shore competition, which you also have with a 300B.
