You know well Roccado has 26 inch wheelsIsn't @HobbesOnTour 's mighty traveller 26 inch?
Personally, I think a lot of it is marketing ******ology and that, in time, things will switch around.
In any case there are large parts of the world where 26 is (almost) the only show in town. Rims and tyres may not be the newest, brightest, bestest but they function. You should see some of the loads carried on ancient 26 inch MTBs in the Latin world - they make me look ultralight!
In our interconnected world there'll always be the opportunity to look wider for what we need if supply dries up closer to home.
It's a good idea to have a list of the advantages. Too many folk unthinkingly adopt whatever the latest mantra is.
