That there's an upward trend isn't what matters:  what matters is the

 How much of the upward trend the product can cover will limit its
lifespan.

Of course.  So then, what is that trend?
As I've already said, my observation is that its ~4GB/decade or less.
Mainstream users often replace their PCs more frequently, so the practice of "upgrade at replacement" has replaced component upgrades.
For example:
Notebook:
2017-present:  Started with 8GB, hasn't changed.
(FYI: likely to replace this machine in 2025).
Power desktop:
2012-2022:  Started with 24GB, never changed.
2022-present:  32GB
Post your own hardware history for the past decade.
