Not completely agreeing with you here: having YouTube open In Chrome, together with a mailbox and 3 other sites is using up most of the RAM available, so 8Gb of RAM would definitely be useful, for much more than compiling more complicated code.
However, a new SoC has to be selected indeed. However, it was already mentioned some time ago that a new SoC is being looked at, using a smaller lithography and a more recent design, so probably, more RAM can be added then as well. However, although I do not know the process of Pine, it will probably appear first in a SBC before it will appear in a Pinebook 2 or something like that. So still very much in the future.
