Keeping lots of photos is easier than whittling them down to some percentage subset.

  It is until someone leaves you 4TB of them to deal with. Where do you even start? I am a big proponent of not leaving my kids a pile of trash to sift through. See my other comment on this matter for background.

    But in 10 years or so, 4TB won't be a lot of data. It's also not really now. My NAS has about 85 now. They could just have it on a portable drive and look through it whenever they want. It's not like they have to catalogue every picture :)

      4TB is a huge amount of data. And it’s costly to keep data spinning. 4TB storage an in apple device is going to set you back a lot of money for example. Not everyone has a NAS or the ability to run one and even more importantly to back it up effectively. It becomes a large monkey on your back and a cost and not an advantage. Looking at my device storage, I have 91Gb online for 5 people. That’s everything we have ever done. Because we care enough to look after it and curate it.
