is 1GB of memory usage really an issue in 2021
It isn't if you're on a laptop from 2021. But that vast majority of people aren't. Companies don't provision new computers to their employees every time a new computer comes out. At the companies I've worked for, the minimum refresh time is 3-5 years, depending on tax laws, and financial ability.
It's also not a big deal if the computer is only used for Zoom. Most people, whether office drones or developers, run many programs at once.
