Exactly. Sure, they could do that, but then everyone would be complaining about the huge laptops they had to build. When you are trying to minimize size and put as much power as possible into the smallest space possible, there is no way there is going to be a standard--especially given that size and portability are a selling point, leading to competition to make the best, smallest design.
