I feel like these are the main reasons you'd want to go physical:
- You want to trade in the game later when you're done with it
- You want to have it on your console forever in case they de-list the game or the online store disappears in the future
Otherwise for the average person, buying digital isn't a big deal IMO. When they announce online stores are closing for a system, I just browse through my purchases and make sure I have everything I want saved on the console before it dies. There's a good chance I won't desperately want every game I purchased.
You really won't save hard drive space playing off a disc anymore. Most new games are required to be installed onto the system anyway.
