Is that what happened after COVID with chip shortage?
Comment on Maybe the RAM shortage will make software less bloated?

The RAM shortage will end before any meaningful memory optimizations can be made.

For the most part, the answer seems to be yes. Some products did also ship with missing or reduced feature sets for a time, too.
