Why, when the phone lets you put in a memory card?
In fact, I would argue that a memory card is a better way to add storage--put all photos and music and whatever documents you want on there, so that you can simply move it from phone to phone as needed. Maybe you buy a new phone every year, or maybe you'd like to be protected if your phone breaks and you suddenly need a new one, etc.
Internal storage in that case is required--required--only for apps. How many apps are you going to use? Are you going to fill a 1TB phone with apps (and, worst case, offline Google maps)?
I've moved the memory card from phone to phone for awhile now, and it just makes sense. It's why I'm not interested in a phone that doesn't have a card slot.
