Base iPad storage is 32-64GB nowadays. Even back in the early days of iPad, base was 16GB. Quite plenty even for 10K books unless your books are particularly image heavy (my Kindle fiction books average around 600KB each).
My 10k books are using about 27GB of space, but that 10k includes all 200+ Delphi omnibus editions, some of which are pretty humongous in size.

Mind, with 10K titles, I'd need Calibre's extensive search capabilities to actually find something to read. Granted, even with the less than 1K on my PW3/PW4, I already do most of my browsing using Calibre content server (either via experimental browser or for faster browsing on my iPhone/iPad). Then when I find something, I just do an author/title search on the Kindle.
That’s exactly what I do.
