Because there are two types of mac users:

People that are buying them with their own money because they're trendy and just using them as glorified Internet browsers. 16gb is plenty.
People using them professionally so their company is paying and Apple can over charge for the necessary memory upgrade

This pretty much. I don’t care that much that a maxed out MBP is $6000 or whatever, my employer pays for that.

I have an m2 8 gb. And it’s plenty. It’s just a browsing/discord/stream box basically.
