Famously, loft ladders are cripplingly expensive!
It's more the additional labour costs of folks comfortable working at height, additional time taken to do the job at height and the associated H&S tax.
Most folks are happy just have a working heat producing device, let alone be picky about where it's positioned. 99% of us are gonna get these things slapped in our back yards, in the same way our boilers are slapped against the most convenient externally facing wall so we can run a flue pipe into our neighbours faces.

These things would obviously have access from inside the house, so no working at height required after the install.
There are many people that appear to be concerned about the location, size, and noise of these things, and a little ingenuity could well help with uptake. It’s hardly beyond the wit of humankind to consider some alternative to slapping it in the back garden.
I mean, many new builds have fake chimney pots for no reason other than vibes, may as well do something useful and aesthetically considered?

A bit tricky for flats with no back yards though.

It feels like this is just a relatively straightforward design problem to be honest. And, really, this might help with the many old terraced houses we have here.
As ever, we seem to be behind on this stuff by at least a decade…
