Maybe a side effect is that we’ll see less RAM requirement inflation on Macs. It feels like cheap RAM has allowed lazy developers to build bulky, inefficient apps for too long because they could get away with it as RAM specs kept improving. Will there finally be an incentive to rein in RAM use if people simply don’t want to spend the extra money (and requisite Apple Tax) to bump up to 24 or 32 GB?
