Why should I pay $40 when I have way more than 16GB of free SSD storage on my computer already?!

I mean, if that's not an issue for you, be my guest. But that's not the global optimum.

It's not slow enough for me to notice, and disk cells will likely outlive the rest of the computer anyway. Its not first generation SSD anymore.

Reusing hardware you already have clearly feels more optimal than buying new one because it makes things unnoticeably slower.
