I have to agree here. Never came close to filling my K2 and I had it for 4 years. Not that I couldn't have but for 2 reasons I didn't even try.
One was the filing system as it was a pita to add and move books around after a few pages of folders.
Second was that after about 2-300 books it really got slow. Once I had it up to 700 books and it wasn't worth the agrivation to work with.
My DX has 4gb and thats fine as I have a few large file pdfs but even then since it has the same type of file system and its Eink it gets slow after more than a couple of hundred books. I dot know if the newer versions are that much faster or easier to manage hundreds of books but I think the "I must have it all at all times" is just being ridiculous.
I'm also not in to needing gigs and gigs of storage on my 6+ or iPad as both are 16gb versions. I find they just get filled with unmanageable amounts of crap.
If I need space I just shuffle something back to iTunes or one of the many clouds I use, and the same goes with the Kindle.
