It also wouldn't change much in MRI (formally NMR) -- it's also very limited on other factors

I mean, both NMR spectrometers and medical MRI machines would be a hell of a lot less complex without the cryostat.

If you remove that, those things become... really, just tubes wrapped in various coils connected to a software defined radio of average quality.

The hardware for RF and Gradients alone isn't that cheap was my thought

Also you can't just write off the fringe field.
