Same reason iPhones is 4gb of 6gb of RAM while flagship android uses 12 and 16gb.
That being said. 256gb SSD and 8gb or ram WILL limit you with large photo or video tasks. So even though it's a pro. Know it has limits.
You are gaining, fans for cooling vs fan less on the Air, slightly better performance on long running multithreaded tasks.
Be aware the 256 model has only one SSD chip not 2 like the 512gb and above so your SSD speed will be in the 2500Mbs vs 5000ish Mbs. for everyday tasks even light photo and video editing work it will work fine.

You are gaining the 14" screen vs 13. A micro LED screen vs ips 120hz refresh vs 60, two more thunder bolt ports, much better speakers, fans for cooling vs fan less on the Air, so it's worth the upgrade for just the screen alone. And more ports.

There's nothing Pro about the 13" that's why Apple killed it when spec for spec, the Air is better.
Went in to get Macbook air M2 for $1049 but got pro instead.
Costco item number is 1601613 but I could not find the item online.

M2 runs hot so only advantage is the fan which in testing can gain you 25 percent performance gains with long running multicore work loads.
And you get a touch bar. (Love it or hate it)
If you can find an M2 air for close to that price it's a better deal. But at $799 for an M2 chip. I still think it's a good deal. At least until March and the M3 air is released and the M2s get reduced. Cheers!
