Since they switched to ARM, everything named “Mac” from Apple is now a
glorified notebook anyway.
 

So we have a Mac Studio now, which is a low-end UNIX workstation.

 
Is that ARM-based? Is it as expandable as the old x86-based Mac Pro? If
no, then don’t call it a “workstation”.

It's very expandable.  It uses a technology that is basically
"external PCIE" -- only that's not what it's called, it's called
"Thunderbolt".
