Now the reduced write speed in the 256GB M2 models is a bit of a bummer - if you research a little further you'll see that they aren't using the same components between M1 and M2. Sure, still the same SOC architecture, but different SSD chips in the 256 models.

Thats not true at all, the MSRP on the new M2 mini is $599. The MSRP on the M1 Mini was $699, it is now $100 cheaper MSRP, and $499 is $100 that MSRP price.

You can pay to upgrade to 16GB or more if that's not enough for you. If we make this Mac Mini a 16GB/512GB it's $1000 not on sale (education price is lower as would sales prices like this).
How much is a comparable Dell? The closest one is the Optiplex 7000 Micro. That costs $1260 for a machine with an i7-12700T, 16GB of RAM, and a 512 GB SSD. That's a good processor but isn't nearly as powerful as the M2.
Sure, you can build something but that's only an option/interest for a small portion of the population. Someone could buy some other brand but we also need to consider reliability and customer service. Both of Apple's are excellent.
