I believe the SSD is soldered so don't plan on upgrading or replacing it if it goes bad.

But then again, it's these complaints that drive the prices down.
So keep going, good sir! I would like 32 gb RAM plus the 1 tb Ssd!!
For comparison, Best Buy is selling 15inch Macbook Air M2 (8gb and 256gb) at $300 discount. In fact if a closeout item is going under $300 discount, this $250 discount seems very decent deal. Approaching it from a deal perspective. No idea of performance stuff. Never used Macbooks in my life but looking around the market as I have 2 kids that will go to college and I am looking for something PC Laptop or Macbook.
Drop $2000 f'n dollars and get a meager 500GB soldered onto the motherboard.
Explain how does that make sense?
Diff in cost between 1tb and 500gb is $40 retail.
Otherwise, DON'T SOLDER it.
Lower prices for all!!! No one buy this so everyone can have it cheaper! Doing the good Lord's work, sir.

The only exception is if you need software that requires Windows. Or do a lot of gaming / things that use a video card.

Except when I wanted to edit bulk RAW images, try training LLM or play around with Stable Diffusion then it immediately chokes. I am not a developer or pro photographer, but I like to dabble, and the base air has been very limiting in that sense.
Upgrading to 16-1TB will put the price of Air very close to this Pro. And even then, a maxed out Air will be vastly underpowered compared to baseline Pro for these tasks.
Too bad I cannot stand the PWM on this Mini LED screen. I wish they'd go with OLED very soon (but that'll likely add $500 to the initial pricing)

Though Apple is a closed system with its own architecture, and haven't been kind to that sort of DIY upgrade.
