I totally concur.

I migrated most of my self-hosted services from multiple rpi (I've been using several of them for years) to a single cheap Intel N100 NUC that I purchased last year: 16GB RAM/512Gb SSD for 156€, and I've been very pleased with it.

You lose some resilience when you do that - if the NUC fails then you lose everything. Whereas if you distribute your services across multiple rpis then a failure of one rpi is not catastrophic.
Which also applies if you use two NUCs and setup failover between them.
