Who would ever give a flying fuck about this "Neolithic" technical
crap?  It's the future that is of concern.

My question has always been: when are these memory engineers (or
whatever they are called) going to produce cheap RAM memory that
can actually keep pace with the CPU?

For decades we have had to use various levels of high speed, though
minuscule, cache memory in order for our software to run, and from
a programming point of view cache management is a supreme bitch.

The world needs cheap RAM that can operate at CPU speeds.  Then,
all programming would be a supreme breeze.

Cache memory is just another crutch, and its existence is indisputable
testimony that modern PC hardware is crippled shit.
