You might personally not care about ankle clearance or weight, but then you might not care about 11 speed, double pivot brakes or any shifter since retrofriction. PF30 isn't just some scam.
Perhaps it's because many "improvements" are anything but....they are just changes to make it easier/cheaper for the companies who mass produce bikes.

BTW, nice to see you back.
