Yes it’s annoying, which is why storage on the list. I have different but equal complaints about other manufacturers.
FWIW I usually advise a compromise at 512GB as that is enough for most current working active projects, then periodically offload to a media or archive drive. Most clients are fine with that.
In the cases where 32GB of RAM is needed and not just nice to have, maybe a different computer is better, like LLM capable machines with discrete GPUs. If you need more RAM for professional purposes like Vectorworks, well it’s a write-off and the cost vanishes compared to ROI so whining is just indulgent.
