Suggested response:

"Eliminating all hyphenation requires substantial manual intervention
and manipulation of text lines and possibly necessitates the rewriting
of content. This is not part of our standard package, and the 
estimated cost will be three times our original quote."

You might also show how it is physically impossible. The word 
antidisestablishmentarianism comes to mind.
