Compression is a thing. But software developers offload their laziness on their users.

Compression, rendering and other algorithms that use the processing power of the console rather than then entire ssd storage. This 161gb is so incredibly lazy

It would mean slower loading perhaps but there's a balance to be struck there. Besides, game being fun has nothing to do with game being high fidelity or huge hard disk space.

Not just slower loading. Less available performance in game.

Every time it needs to load a texture it’s uncompressing it on the fly…. That’s going to take away from CPU and RAM (both the compressed and uncompressed versions will be in RAM).

It's not going to be less performance in the game. Once uploaded to GPU texture is ready to be used. Just the loading part would be slower.
