More RAM does not make a slow ARM SoC any faster.

If you point was that it is too slow in general compared to the price... fine agreed. But total amount of RAM is a really bad measure for "fastness" of a computer.

Alright, I'll rephrase.

32 GB is definitely nice for most (if not all) cases covered by a laptop. With that said, a lot of DDR5 systems are already on triple-digits. Also, it would be nice to have discrete RAM slots instead of having everything on SoM.
