Yes you could try selling BH produced in such numbers but since it is a common goal everyone will trying to produce the same numbers, this means the primary market is those players who are building up to do their first Woodcutter, once they have done that they get the resources they need from loot, meaning they will be one off purchases by some players, some other players will obtain the Plat Ore they need by other means to make their first batch of BH in-house. the rest will rely on in-guild generosity.
Your example of a skunked level 6 E-Barrack may have one flaw. Going by the tends on Sandycove's market when XXL came out we had large stocks of both skunks and banners but since XXL came out we have been using both at a rate far higher than the spawn rate of banners. Even then your example your only using 43.3% of your BH production. Need I mention that the wheat used by the remaining 56.6% BH you can't use could be turned into 680 settlers a day.
