Running through emulation and on an entry level first generation machine that is significantly cheaper

  I wouldn't call a $2,300 device "entry level".

    It is the entry level laptop in the Apple ecosystem, though.

    It's a $1300 entry level device with $1000 worth of maxing ram and SSD space.

  This statement is vacuous unless you can quantify how much faster non-emulated software will be

  The Rosetta 2 translation is very impressive. The $2600 32GB 2TB Intel-based Macbook Pro 13" is only $300 more than the $2300 16GB 2TB M1-based Macbook Pro 13", though. If you could spec the M1 with 32GB, it would probably cost the same. As pointed out, if you go with 1TB, you save $400. As per usual, the upgrade prices are (in my opinion) crazy!
