I don't get your comment. If its more expensive and much quicker, then this doesn't sound like a fair comparision at all or alternative.

I'm not sure if my original comment is to unclear:

If someone with a Device from 2013, really waits for the ARM Version of a Mac Book, that person will not have any advantage to a normal intel cpu based Mac Book because EVERY device which is 7 years younger is so much faster anyway.

RAM Prices on Mac where never reasonable.

Upgrade prices where never reasonable.

Why would Apple ever reduce upgrade prices just because they might save 100$ on a CPU?

And why would you assume that the development of your own inhouse ARM CPU would make such a financial difference? After all, you have to develop a CPU.

And what? Apple reports over 25% profit; Why would you even assume that Apple is doing anything for you? They could easily reduce there profit margin for you. They don't.

Why?

You are running a 2013 Macbook Pro; there is no clear benefit for you buying a Macbook from 2020 with or without ARM at all.

Its absolutly unreasonable, if you are already running your Macbook from 2013, that the ARM will give YOU anything relevant extra as the general upgrade from a 7 year old device.

I'm pretty sure what makes that stuff so expensive is all the Quality Control for every single part.

Its probably quite a linear cost vector they have.

USA is huge, its over 260 Million People. The country itself spannes different regions and zones.

It is quite closed minded to reduce this to 'the U.S. is a sick country'

Then feel free to actually bring proper argumentation instead of throwing some weird sentences out into the outernet...
