You're saying this in a world where AMD's highest end consumer GPU in 2026 is also limited to 16 GB.

FWIW that depends on the stores you're looking at. There are three models from different manufacturers available here in a few shops. The prices are a bit ouchier than what i paid for mine around Christmas 2024 though (i got mine on a sale).

7900XT has 20GB and you can still get some unused ones.

R9700 has 32GB and is cheaper than most NVidia consumer GPUs, even though it's a "pro".

And I can still buy a new W7800 48GB for a relatively decent price.
