I get the impression that it's mostly that there are plenty of relatively cheap existing floppy options so things tend to skew that way. But there are plenty of hard drive options, including IDE and CF adapters as well as SCSI to SD. Having a fixed drive becomes really useful for a lot of stuff, especially working with anything in GSOS as for the later system revisions you really can't run a full system install without one. While true that most games are booters-- and frequently ones made with custom toolsets at that-- anything more productivity oriented can really stand a fixed drive.
