The list is missing Lattice ICE40HX8K-B-EVN.

This board costs $85 or EUR 80.

It does not include anything superfluous, but it has four 40-pin 2.54 mm (100 mil) headers. Most of these 160 pins are usable as FPGA I/O pins.

No other cheap FPGA board offers so many I/O pins and by using standard large-pitch headers it is easy to connect the pins to anything else.

This series of Lattice FPGAs had its bitstream reverse-engineered and there are open-source tools for programmming it.

There are faster FPGA boards available, but in many cases those are not usable due to having too few pins routed to external connectors.
