One other thing to think about is that in the past, running short of memory meant things being "paged out" to the drive and then brought back when called on. On a rotating disk, that was a slow process. With the M1/M2 approach to storage, that function might happen, but it happens now at internal buss speeds, which makes it much faster. I have an M1 MBP with 16GB of memory and the swap has never gone above zero. in fact, right now with two instances of Safari running, plus Messages, Mail, Calendar and Activity Monitor, plus Word, along with Enpass and Chronosync and Maps, I am only using about 10GB of that 16, and the "memory pressure" is green. Apple has definitely made some good strides in memory management!</p></blockquote><p></p>
