It's cause people think they don't have enough storage cause they're trying to do it over the air. All you have to do is hook up to iTunes and it will install. Regardless of how little storage you have.

Eta: Apple could easily remedy this by saying how to do it when you get the over the air storage message. Beyond me why they don't.
When you install on your phone it has to download then have a lot of free space to run when you use iTunes all that's done on the computer so free space on the phone isn't an issue

I'm not saying that's the only reason. No doubt the .1 gaffe was huge. But it's astonishing how many people hit the storage space issue don't know to just use iTunes. That's Apples fault.

You're right, there is no explanation to use iTunes. On top of that, I think most people don't want to bother with plugging their phone into the computer anymore. Isn't that the whole point of the cloud and the "ecosystem".

That's actually not true. I connected to computer and I still had to delete 550 mb of data. I had 1.5 gb available
