> egregious that Apple can't put in a couple of slots for an extension.

"It's great that my Bugatti Veyron is so fast, and it's egregious that it can't also be used as a boat."

The reason M1/M2/M3 is so quick is that it's such a highly-integrated design, with the RAM and the GPU on the same die and thus sharing very high bandwidth connections.

This is _why_ it doesn't have DIMM slots. It's quick for the same reasons that the memory isn't expandable.
