It’s objectively worse. “Real world performance” might be the same, but I’m paying for performance AND parts.

You’re not paying for the discrete parts. You’re not gonna desolder that RAM and use it for something else.

No but I am paying for the accumulation of those parts no? Otherwise I’m not buying hardware.

And we know shoe on the other foot, if there was no performance increase, but a fancy marketing label, they’d be all over increasing the price for it.

You’re paying for the overall performance of the product, not for specs of each discrete component by itself.

Yes, you also pay for whatever they decide is relevant to marketing.
