8gb of system ram is enough for a low end system (especially with Linux) and 8gb of vram is enough for 1080p gaming.

Same with 8 GB of L1 cache.

The reason why people didnt like 8gb of ram on MacBooks is because they charged premium prices for laptops with 8gb. Especially since you cant upgrade the ram. My Thinkpad has 8gb of ram but if I wanted I could upgrade to 16gb.

I know lol, I was taking a pot shot at apple for exactly that reason, no excuse for the insane pricing with such a restriction on it, not to mention it's soldered in ram lol.
