I think it's less of a Mac thing, and more of a RAM thing.
More ram than you anticipate is like extra lung capacity and working memory. Also an extra year or two out of the laptop. Combined with horsepower it can be an advantage.
Instant switching of apps or screens can have it's benefits, but needs to be managed.
Similar to having more tabs open than normal. Tools like Firefox Spaces are invaluable for switching between multiple client projects.
Waiting for apps to open/load/close can add up significantly throughout a day depending on the variety.
