>M1-2 are brittle and controlled, the opposite of open/repairable etc.
We have reached the point where we cannot have removable ram for technical reasons. M chips get a a lot of their performance from excellent memory bandwidth. Move on from this thought process. The software is still gives you more control compared to Windows and thats what really matters, not the arch that it is running.
>If you don't have this hardware, you'll get something that will last max 10 years.
10 years is enough time for the next computing paradigm shift. It is great that MacOS lets us hold onto the old world for 10 more years(hopefully).
>USA has banned China from manufacturing without having a replacement.
Thats a temporary issue. They mostly made low end junk silicon anyway.
