Anyone that who has a reasonable understanding of computers would know that nothing other than dedicated GPU RAM (which Apple SoCs do not have) would make a system with less main RAM equivalent to a system with more main RAM (and only in certain workloads).

All claims that somehow the Apple SoC's "unified memory" makes them require less RAM are nothing less than bald face lies!
