The performance across the board is worse on the 8GB devices, tests prove that. Secondly, performance with future versions of MacOS will probably start to take a toll on these devices also. It's just my opinion but no computer in 2024 should cost $1,000 and only have 8GB of RAM.

For many, or most users 8GB will do just fine. I have never heard anyone say "I can not shop on the Amazon website because I don't have enough RAM in my Macbook."

What's happened is that Apple puts very fast SSM that is rated at 1.2PBW in the computer to back the RAM.

And for those who wnt more, they offer a Mac Studio.

Apple store is so stingy they never offer sales
The open secret is that many people, at least in the US, buy from Apple's Education Store, which offers $100 or so discount. And Apple is about to roll out Back To School special, which has been $150 gift card toward select Mac models (typically iMac, MacBook Air, and MacBook Pro) and $100 gift card for select iPad models (typically iPad mini, iPad Air, and iPad Pro).
