I think a major limiting factor here for many applications is that mobile users are a huge portion of the user base. In that space storage, and more importantly battery life, are still at a premium. Granted the storage cost just seems to be gouging from my layman’s point of view, so industry needs might force a shift upwards.

Mobile devices are the desktop computers of the 2010s though. They are mostly used with very thick clients.
