On a Xbox Series S it uses 150 GB of 364 GB available storage (41 %). I remember people complaining about Switch's 32 GB storage, when Zelda BOTW used 13.4 GB of the 28 GB available storage (47 %). It's pretty comparable, though.
Good point. I think it's actually worse for the Series S since increasing the internal storage is far more expensive plus there's no digital only Switch so at least you always have the option to buy physical.
Either the game is huge or the compression leaves much to be desired off or both.
