There are low power graphics cards released every year that is a lot faster than it's predecessor.
But it's always possible to gain lots of performance while using more power. So if they can double the performance by doubling the heat output of that low power card, they will. You can still buy these low power cards, it's up to you.
What if (then) they come up with an idea that gives us twice the performance of GTX480 while only using 90 watts? They will use the same technology to make a card six times faster while consuming 270 watts. And you will still complain that they should make this monster in the same 90W enveloupe.
