A number of high end (still-centric) cameras are known for overheating problems during recording, even before the 30 minute mark is reached.

Using HDMI output and avoiding the compression and storage codecs probably helps with heat.
No doubt, but it remains that if there was a suitable market for the same camera + no record limit, even if at a premium to compensate for taxes + extra work, vendors would take notice and put in the necessary effort to engineer their devices to compensate for the heat. Without a suitable market, though, why bother? Design them only to the point that they can record for ~30 minutes and the market says that's good enough.
