Developers often work on high-specced laptops and it's hard for us to even remember how using 4GB of RAM feels like. My first laptop I used for professional work had 16GB of RAM and that was a 1000€ laptop 9 years ago. That laptop still works and Discord is usable on it.
On the other hand I did see a computer with 512MB of RAM in use at a high school in my country in 2018, so I understand that in some places people can't afford to upgrade their hardware.
But if RAM is the only issue and most 15 years old hardware can be upgraded to 8GB or 16GB of RAM for 80€, I believe that most developers simply see problems on 4GB RAM systems as a non-issue.
