The economics don't work out - you have remember, optical discs are dirt cheap. Sony barged into the console market by guaranteeing any randos that passed certification could press as many copies as they wanted, with three days of lead time, for a dollar apiece. N64 cartridges cost ten bucks empty and you wouldn't get them for a month.
There is a reason Nintendo Power never had Game Boy demos glued to the front cover.
For Baldur's Gate 3, that third disc might be more expensive than the first two combined, because they have to spend some extra cents on a case with the flappy middle part.
