If it's the shift I think you're referring to, I find it strange that you compare computing decisions from the 50s and 60s to today. You're correct, but that was over half a century ago. The reasons for those decisions, such as bus speeds, high latency, and low bandwidth, no longer apply. Today, the industry is moving toward unified memory. This trend includes not only Apple but also Intel, AMD with their APUs, and Qualcomm. Pretty much everyone. To me, the benefits are clear: - Reduced copying of large amounts of data between memory pools. - Improved memory usage. - Generally lower power consumption.
