I tried really hard to come up with a need for the extra RAM and failed. Even with a few beefy VMs. Plus ECC is only available up to 32GiB. I kept mine to about 3800 and got all I can use for a long while I think :)

That's fair.

I open far far too many Chrome tabs and only have 8GB RAM, so I guess I'm very heavily biased.

FWIW, I was able to select 64GB ECC DDR4 in the configurator.
