I would like to just have a storage engine that can be very aggressive at deduplicating stuff. If some data is redundant, why am I storing it twice?

That's already pretty common, but the goal isn't storing less data for its own sake.

Isn't it? I was under impression that the problem is the cost storing all this stuff
Nope, you can't just look at cost of storage and try to minimize it. There are a lot of other things that matter.
