In my case (epubs, because I don't have a Kindle) the 8 largest epubs in my library total over 1.5GB. If they were mobi or azw3 those 8 alone would overflow the user available internal memory of a Kindle Paperwhite, for example. (And the largest pdf is a smidgin under 1GB)
So, believe it or not, while it may not apply to oneself, others may have needs for large libraries of many books and for large amounts of storage. It is dangerous to make assumptions about what others need without actually knowing their particular circumstances.
