I yield to you points about the professional end of things, but I still feel that this will happen within the next three years (within 2 case revisions) since it does take up consider room in a notebook while offering seldom usage to most.
Anything is possible in the future (within reason).
But as the main complaint about these light, and small notebooks is that they LACK these drives, I just don't see that as a good choice for more conventionally sized machines anytime soon.
As a bay is even larger than a permanent drive by itself, I doubt they would want that either, but maybe...
It's not an ideal situation for me, but for me it's better than having an optical drive I won't use. Plus I can add additional batteries without hibernating the machine first. I do realize that I'm in the minority for multiple battery use.

If this was a bay for an optiona optical drive, it would likely also accept an additional HDD, if the power was available, but not another battery.
They did that in the past, I think, but I don't see it happening again.
Actually, I don't see an open bay at all for Apple, in the future.
