The camera bump (rather than a full-size thickness increase) makes the phone feel less massive, especially in your pocket.

I don't need it to "feel" less massive. Most wallets are thicker and I don't hear anyone complain.
not sure if you mean clip-on cell phone wallets (I assume that people that don't want a thick cell phone don't add a wallet since it makes their cell phone too thick), or actual wallets... plenty of people complain about those:

And a thick wallet causes enough health problems for it to be called "Fat Wallet Syndrome".

That bump is more than 1/4 of the phone's total thickness. This is becoming comical.
