The point of the limits is the challenge though, not just nostalgia. I don't agree that a 64KiB demo is any less impressive on a modern machine than it was back then. On the contrary, moving to something like the latest Pi means there isn't much point in having the limit at all - and those competitions already exist, e.g. a PC "demo" (as opposed to "intro") isn't usually limited to a specific size.
