How did you measure this?
Sounds like "feelz" measuring to me
The main metric has been with Adobe apps. 2017 Macs with 8GB of RAM are still able to run Premiere and a few others things smoothly simultaneously. Windows machines with the same config were crashing constantly and kept going.
But I'm still not defending Apple here. It's been 6 years, and their base level MacBook still ships with the same amount of RAM.
