Ram is massively more expensive in 2026 than it was in 2020. And the tasks the average person does hasn't changed in that time. I think it could be a good thing that Apple is setting a baseline that your apps should run with 8gb, there isn't a good reason you couldn't work with that amount.

it was not massively more expensive in the first half of 2025.

Absolutely untrue. Your 2020 CV makes you completely unemployable in 2026.
