If it were an Air, 8GB makes sense since it’s designed for a lighter workflow. For the Pro, 8GB doesn’t make sense as any improvement you will have will likely be bottlenecked unless you just care about the nicer screen in the Pro.

Between those two options, the M2 Pro Base by far. However, if you feel like buying new(come onnnnn, a black Macbook Pro?!), the M3 Pro base model is also a good option.
M2 Pro with 16 Gigs
The M3 base MBP14 replace the M2 MBP13. The M3 Pro MBP14 replace the M2 Pro MBP14.
