That will be interesting to see.  Not there yet, but certianly can
happen.

Its not so far off anyway. Especially in the smaller sizes., There is a certain amount of mechanical complexity in a spinning rust affair that needs to be built before any storage is added.
NVMe is also caseless and has a very low cost connector.
1TB in te UK is in the £40-£60 bracket
1TB spinning rust is in the £20-60 bracket. More buys you speed, but not as fast as NVMe.
If you want the speed, NVMe SSD is already cheaper
