That thing ( the mac mini in all its incarnations) is a loss leader, borderline scam. It is priced way cheaper than it ought to be, so you don’t notice that the most basic of ram or storage upgrades cost roughly 6 to 8 times more than market rate. It is so bare bones that you can’t do anything actually productive without shelling the other $3-500 for the upgrades. And since everything is soldered to the board it is not user serviceable. The single most expensive piece of shit in the entire market.
Your reading comprehension sucks then. Because I meant all the Mac mini line. Although they did apply the same logic to the air and pro. The mini is the worst offender. Anyway, I added the edit for posterity, even if it doesn’t matter anymore.

You might’ve lost us at calling anything apple sells a “loss leader”
