Now? Prices have been flat for 15 years and DRAM has been stuck on 10 nm for a while.

That's overstating the flatness of prices. In 2009, the best price recorded here was 10 dollars per gigabyte:

Recently DDR4 RAM is available at well under $2/GB, some closer to $1/GB.

$1/GB? That's around the price SSDs took over from HDDs...
