That's pretty niche though. Even in that scenario, you could always offload to external storage.
It seems reasonable that their phones are expected to mostly behave as phones, and not as a large photo/video repository.

Not really. Do you ever travel? Have you ever been on a road trip? Have you ever been on a plane? Have you ever gone camping?
The issue comes up if you use your phone solely as a camera without an accompanying connection for long enough to fill up internal storage without some way to offload it.
It's a situation that won't come up ever for most users of the phone, and as Wifi and Data coverage increases will become even more obscure.
It's especially a problem while cruising - onboard WiFi is slow and expensive, buying a sim per country wastes time.
