Every single crypto that has tried to pass that limitation has remained centralised in one way or another. You can either:

1) have centralisation

2) assume storage space will expand exponentially since the entire point of bitcoin is many many copies of its ledger

3) come up with a new method more secure than PoW but still decentralised

Good luck with (3). (1) and (2) are not good choices. So they moved it off the chain into lightning network.
