To claim that the market is small

Small is relative. My former employer covers more people than any small state has residents. From the perspective of insurance companies, you are a niche market. They aren't going to spend a lot of time coming up with a variety of plans for your consideration. You say that there are lots of companies who would service you, maybe so. But I'll bet none of them has dozens of options from which you can choose. I bet that all their plans look pretty much alike. If the market were bigger, and if state regulations didn't constrain their options they would come up with more and varied plans so they could better compete.
