Of course if that family of four wants things like preventive care and routine tests such as a colonoscopy...

But it probably wouldn't. Typically, you don't need a colonoscopy until you're an empty nester. Sure, there are exceptions, but most parents with children in the house don't need much in the way of preventive care or "routine tests." Most routine tests either don't start until the kids are gone or are recommended only every five years or so, which is budgetable. A catastrophic coverage policy works for that scenario.
