You must not have checked very thoroughly, because these cameras absolutely exist, they're just not popular because of the limited utility of GPS in a camera compared to the battery drain and time it can take to resync an outdated almanac if your camera's been turned off for a few days.
I'll note that that's a limitation not of how powerful cameras are or aren't, but one of most GNSS systems architecturally; the almanac in these situations communicates to client devices information about any updates the satellite constellation, broadly speaking, and because this is a low-bitrate system in GEO, there isn't much client devices can do to speed this up.

Of the top 10 most recent entries on that list, only one (the Hasselblad) weighs in at over USD$7k, though others like the D6, Z9, and EOS-1D are high-end cameras that clock in around $5-6k new on B&H.
Olympus's offerings all fall under about $2500 with most of those options available under $1000.
