At this point, I'm going to guess that it costs Apple more money to buy a 64GB SSD chip than a 128GB SSD chip because most manufacturing lines have stopped making chips so small. But Apple is still using 64GB as the base because they really want you to upgrade to 256GB.
You can see here that smaller SSD sizes can sometimes cost more than larger ones because they stop making smaller ones.

I think 256GB is fine for a base Mac. Is it a screaming deal? No. But 256GB is comfortable for basic usage. 64GB is not. With 64GB, download a few games, take a few photos, and suddenly you don't even have enough space to update the OS. Ridiculous.
64GB is simply not an acceptable entry experience for a $500 - $600 iPad.
