However, most folks I?ve talked to, have found that the constraints

You actually really pay per I/O pin on an FPGA. And the problem of most
people is, that they dream of 500 I/O pins in a hand solder-able
package. This ship sailed ;-)
As soon, as you decide to pay the premium for a BGA, the sky is the
limit ...
