Why is this an issue? I do have a clone of all my company repos, doesn't everyone? Memory is cheap and ripgrep/ag are fast.

No, every microservice or new project/ tool get its own repository. There's new ones being created quite frequently, so I have ~10 repositories cloned that most relate to the work I do, but nothing beyond that.
Bandwidth is not cheap for many of us.
how big are the repos at your company?
Bitbucket has a 2GB max size on each repo, I'd suspect other providers have similar restrictions. Would be a problem on mobile but repos that hit that limit are rare.
