Would someone who wants to get into the country file an N-400? I'm not up on immigration law, but I'm guessing most illegal workers would probably try to be legally admitted on a non-immigrant basis, not on a naturalization track.
Also, what's the probability that a manual laborer in Mexico would be granted a visa for permanent residence? I don't think it's the cost that's keeping them out (many pay very high amounts to be smuggled in), it's that their applications would either be extremely delayed or denied.
