Even if you're a hobbyist it looks like the 8GB Pro is not a great choice (www.youtube.com)

Honest question: RAM is so cheap, why is Apple even doing this? Is it just so they can advertise one price but then convince people they have to level up? What's the advantage to the 8GB to them.

Easier to get people to upgrade in a couple years because their laptop ages much faster. 8GB ram is low but usable in 2023. It would be unusable by 2026, necessitating an upgrade.
