I never understood how can people sleep with that 178cm interior width as always pictured in photos [1]. Are all people living in these camper vans midgets or what?

The same way people do it in tents. The Transit is plenty big for living. I like the Sprinter though, you can put a bathroom with a toilet in some of them. A wood stove is also useful.

I built a camper van from a Promaster and it’s 78 inches across in the back. So with a thin layer of insulation I can fit a full size mattress across the back. The Promaster is wider than the Transit or the Sprinter.

I lived in a Ford Transit (MR, 132") for 2 years. I'm a little over 6'2". I slept a little sideways and was smart with my interior build out. Most people are shorter or spend the money on flares. (Flarespace)

It seems that the European version of this Ford Transit Nugget by Westfalia has two beds (inside and top) that are big enough for four 6-footers.
