All of which is easy to look back and say. Nobody knew what was going to win out at the time. The Moto X was great for its size and customizability for the price (as in you could literally change the colors), the G was a budget phone that also offered customization.
And you’re mistaken, the Moto X had multiple different sizes starting at 16GB. I had the 32GB developer edition myself.
Maybe later it did. At launch it was just 16GB and that's what my wife got. I heard they came out with a 32GB version later.
I can say what I can say now because hindsight is 20/20 but I also lived through those days, so I can also say what I experienced.
