Apple might have sourced and soldered on LPDDR modules from the same company, but it is not LPDDR4 and it is LPDDR5 6400 connected via a 256 (Pro), 512 (Max) or 1024 (Ultra) bit wide memory bus.

Other than LPDDR5 6400 had not existed in 2018, no Intel CPU has ever used a 512, leave alone 1024, bit wide memory bus even in the server setup. Wide memory bus is conducive of faster concurrent complex builds, and Rust / Haskell builds show significantly faster build speeds as well.
