You are absolutely correct. I would say that I'd rather have the RAM ICs socketed, though, especially considering that the first Mac had a meager 128k of it. :(

Could you piggyback RAM by soldering it on top of the existing chips, bending out a single chip-enable pin so it alone wasn't in parallel with the existing chips, and soldering it to a wire? I had an H89 with 64K of RAM; the last 16K was hacked in that way.

Not without switching around the address lines, at the very least.
