If you agree that adding a SD card would entail compromises on either functionality or design, then the debate is over. As for the iPad,
this isn't the best picture, but I don't see all this room you've mentioned.

And why couldn't something be done ala the fusion drive? That's Apple's new drive made by combining a traditional hard drive and a SSD. Frequently used stuff gets stored on the NAND, less often used stuff gets stored on the platters. For iOS, have frequently used stuff on internal NAND, and use the SD for long term storage.

The fusion drive never leaves the computer, so it's not comparable to a SD card.

No it doesn't, but the obsession speaks to a lack of perspective and a sense of proportion.
