I have to say though, I am unsure of how printing plastic money would be different from cotton. I don't know if it would cost more or less per production capita.

I don't know how the production costs break down but the important point is that the lifespan of the individual bill is increased lessing the need to produce as many bills.
IF the cost of production is the same or lower, it will save a lot of money.
