Interesting take on comparability vs performance. I gotta imaging capturing user data and sending to a cloud collector is also a big culprit.

Also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parkinson%27s_law : The duration of public administration, bureaucracy and officialdom expands to fill its allotted time span, regardless of the amount of work to be done.

Fitting quotes:

Data expands to fill the space available for storage.
The demand upon a resource tends to expand to match the supply of the resource (If the price is zero). The reverse is not true.
