What's new about this with the H2 chip? My H1-chipped USB-C Airpods Max (OG) seem to switch seamlessly between my iphone, ipad, and macbook pro already.

Maybe things have changed but the last time I looked at this, it was only max 96GB to the GPU. And it isn't dynamic in the sense you still have to tweak the kernel parameters, which require a reboot. Apple has none of this.

Most workstation class laptops (i.e. Lenovo P-series, Dell Precision) have 4 DIMM slots and you can get them with 256 GB (at least, before the current RAM shortages). There's also the Ryzen AI Max+ 395 that has 128GB unified in laptop

There's almost never a death where there is a single factor, regardless of aviation or not. You can always decompose systems into various layers of abstractions and relationships. But software bugs are definitely a contributing cause.

They don't just specify 12 smaller cables for nothing if 2 larger ones will do. There are concerns here with mechanical compatibility (12 wires have smaller allowable bend radius than 2 larger ones with the same ampacity).
