You are speaking about _latest_ Pis.

No I'm not. Pi 2 meets all of those requirements and has MicroSDHC which offer tons of high speed space even at entry level.

Besides that was an example, I have plenty of other IoT and embedded style hardware and they are all fitting this criteria.

Simply put the size of binaries has never been a real concern for some time now and the few rare cases where it might matter probably aren't worth all the effort made obsessing over sub 50mb bin size.

99%+ of it will be people who "feel" like it should be small, without any good reason.
