And by the way, for the repairability folks: replaceable RAM on mobile devices is going away for good reason. Two SODIMMs is 128 bits of multi-GHz bus across multiple cm of board and a connector. That *eats* power. This isn't manufacturers being out to screw us, it's physics.

So not the component, but how it connects to everything else. The connection between the CPU and RAM is the biggest offender because it's so wide. The CPU socket and RAM socket and DIMM PCB and motherboard PCB all contribute to that.
