I did try using concentric, and that made it marginally better...but still not as perfect as they were before. I could try quarter cubic.
I did consider that...it's just that, I would really rather not. Because I want to mass produce these, and making the infill 100% would vastly increase the amount of material and time required.
Any ideas on how the same gcodes, material, and equipment a year later wouldn't work as well any more?

I can't see what print settings you're using, since the 3mf file uses a printer I don't have a definition for (and therefore I can't get quality presets for).
Try using a different infill pattern. Cubic is the default, and works in most circumstances, but IIRC Quarter Cubic and Octet create even smaller pockets of air, although they do require longer bridges at the top (which shouldn't be a problem for something this small). I think Quarter Cubic is supposed to be a bit better for things only a few millimetres tall (and obviously as a general rule, the more infill, the better).
Me though? I'd take the lazy option. Make the whole thing solid. It's not like it uses much filament. Set the infill density to 100% and it should print every layer using the pattern set for top/bottom layers.
