A lot of us actually play with our toys though, and "storage" = your own closet, not some rented warehouse space.
If you want to do cool shit like this, it's not really possible with 1:12, due to how much space it takes up. All this would fit on a single shelf, whereas in 1:12 scale, you can maybe fit 4 due to volume.
On common Ikea furniture like the Kallax, you can split those cube shelves into two with a popular shelf insert, so it suddenly becomes 2 large 10' tall rooms for 1:18 figures. So you effectively have twice the space despite the size difference actually being 50%.
So furniture and storage cases also plays a role in how many figures you can fit in the same amount of space. With a tackle box, you can fit an entire 1:18 army into one. Whereas you'll have trouble putting a squad into the same box, because the box is only 10" wide. You can make two rows of 1:18 figures, while only one row of 1:12 figures. Yeah, there's head space too, but again, that space works out better for smaller figures (16" long = four 1:18 figures, vs two 1:12 figures).
