If the NS is to be on par with PS4/XB1 then I have a feeling that might not be enough.

1. 3DS was stated to only support 32GB (or was it 64?) but people use 128GB or more without issue.
2. While not perfect, you can own multiple SDCards.
3. For a device that has to also be portable, you do not want to push a HDD in the device. Space, energy usage and price all go up. I think its a good trade-off to be forced to use SDCards vs having a larger, maybe 500GB built-in HDD. Likely, this will actually support 512 SD Cards anyways based on 3DS difference.

Exactly.

It isn't a trade-off, it's a trade-up if it eliminates/reduces loading times and installations.

Sony/MS should copy it.
