I'm quite sure that you got that backwards. Your dev machine may run Electron apps fine with 16GB RAM, but a huge majority of average folks are on 4GB and often less. And they're already running Windows 10 (or at best OS X) and a web browser with a bunch of open tabs!

True. My computer just cannot run a web browser and Atom at the same time without freezing for a few seconds every minute or so.
