I don't think the devices' RAM is limited to 16GB by anything other than choice.
Think about it. If you want to introduce a new architecture, you can sell a bunch of entry-level devices to pandemic-constrained consumers during the holiday season. Their take-up of the product will spur development and flesh out the software ecosystem for Apple Silicon devices.
Once you cultivate the software ecosystem, more advanced users (professionals with very specific needs) can migrate toward the new architecture.
They're basically using Christmas to slingshot the new chip into the mainstream.
