Just curious…why? For the vast majority of Uber’s users, space is basically free.

  Because I can store either Uber's (and 10 other companies') bloat, or an extra 10 album's worth of music. I'd rather have the music.

    Well, in practice, it's not either-or, the vast majority of users get to have both 10+ companies "bloat", as well as 10 album's worth of music. The base model of an Apple iPhone comes with 64GB, which is probably more than enough for the vast majority of Apple users — all the bloaty apps one might use on a day to day basis, all their pictures, and all their music. For an extra $50 you get 128GB. This is more than enough for the vast vast majority of Apple users (yes I'm aware that there probably exists dozens of idiosyncratic power users who might need even more). In fact, if you're the kind of user that's going to blow past that, it's probably because you're storing more-than-average 4K or 8K video and RAW images, where shaving down app size is probably not going to help anyway.
