Glass back is a subjective feature.

Digital cameras were a multi billion dollar business before smartphones existed. Over 100 million digital cameras were sold each and every year.

I’m almost certain it’s possible to just put in a better camera sensor

You are absolutely wrong. Look at the physical size of digital cameras. Lenses have physical limitations. Higher density sensors are diffraction limited. That is you can’t make the sensor pixel element smaller because it is smaller than the wavelength of light. Cameras don’t look like this spuelbeck.net/canon-ef-300mm-f28/ just for fun. It’s physically necessary for the lens to be that large.

since it adds a unique feature,

It takes a better picture. Calling a better picture a gimmick is like calling a faster CPU a gimmick. Some people want better photos.

Ranting about cameras you don’t use is like ranting about CPU cores you don’t use. I don’t game on my phone, where’s my phone without a GPU??? Stupid GPU gimmick.
