How does game app size factor into the enjoyment in any way? Android phones aren't like iPhones and most have sd card slots which are dirt cheap nowadays.

I do not recommend using SD cards to store apps. I think SD cards are for storing media like photos we take or music we listen to…

SD card is just not nearly as fast as NVMe storage or even UFS 3.
