It is still a premium, just not to the users that these apps typically target.
I, for one, like being able to install Linux on a 4GiB thumb drive. If your app doesn't work with command line parameters without a GUI and can't be installed in spare space on a 4GiB drive then your app probably doesn't target me at all.
Note that there are a TON of apps that do fit well within those requirements.
