It could have made a big difference but it was adoption that was the problem. Swapping an SSD from a HDD is very easy and straight forward for most people - SATA cables are also well designed and easy to understand. Its almost like a USB cable in an L shape.
Completely changing the format? That is a huge obstacle.
NVME SSD's also came along soon enough we got something that was much, much faster than SATA SSD's and eventually I think it just became clear it was diminishing returns. That being said I am still hoping for an Optane replacement.
