I could cut your desk helf in half.
Sure you can fit your keyboard and maybe your mouse on it but how about any additional documents?
Might be a bit annoying to work with?

That doesn’t make sense. If I have my keyboard and mouse comfortably on half a desk and still have room on the other half for all my little projects, why do I need more desk space?

  You don’t have the other half anymore.
  You said you are very comfortable with 4GB.
  Why you need 4 more?

    In the example there is 8GB installed and usage is normally under 4GB. You said “doesn’t mean you won’t benefit from more”. Unless you use that unused 4GB, installing additional RAM is not very useful.
    
    So, to push the metaphor, if my keyboard and mouse fit fine on the 4GB half of the desk and the other 4GB is enough for the other things I want to do, then 8GB is enough and I won’t benefit from more. When 4GB is not enough, then more RAM makes sense.
