No, there are bunch of games which do ask where to install (50-100 MB) data files.

Reason why not all apps do this, is that it very non-standard way to install files, deb packages and linux file system hierarchy is just made this way. Another reason is that sd-cards are usually fat32 formatted which lacks some features that generally are used (like sym-links).

One way to make some space to internal flash is to delete documentation pdf's and move all of your own files to sd-card.
