This would only affect the 12V rail though no? It's not like they are beefing up the 5V rail that supplies your USB ports in excessive amounts. Picking a random PSU from pcpartpicker, the CORSAIR RM650e vs RM1200e (650W vs 1200W) both have a +5V@20A rail. There would be no need to have a larger 5V rail to support gaming cards.

Also correct me if I am wrong, most PSU's are more efficient at 20-50% utilization, not 100%. I'm basing this off the higher ratings for 80 Plus.
