96 is 194.89 = $2.03/GB
1 cent better value per GB? That's definitely not a reason to go 96 if 64 will do.
The issue I see is that most newer (budget) laptops have at least one soldered stick out of two. More and more laptops are not upgradeable at all for the RAM. These pairs of RAM modules are becoming much less useful.
Remember when you could access the RAM & HDD by removing a simple cover with screws? Now you have to (carefully) pry the whole bottom off. Sometimes, you also need to remove other things to get to what you want to upgrade.
Remember when you could easily replace the battery, because it simply clipped in without requiring any other removal (Like older cell phones)?
Those were the good old days, as far as upgrading. Now it's all about cost-cutting. I suppose they figure most won't bother with replacing batteries or user upgrades, so they don't spend a few more dollars to make them user-friendly for such tasks.
End rant.
I recently picked up this Lenovo "Gaming Laptop" from Target, encouraged by a couple comments that upgrading the inadequate 8GB of RAM was an easy task, anticipating an access panel on the underside of the laptop as you mentioned like in the old days - no such luck. I did manage to get the laptop apart and swap the single 8GB stick for a 32GB kit (2x16), but it was no small feat, and was a bit stressful on a brand new machine still in warranty.

A friend just gave me an older low-spec Dell laptop, same thing, difficult to crack open, but in that case there was a YouTube video on disassembly - that laptop only had a single SODIMM slot with 4 GB of RAM - luckily I had an 8GB stick laying around pulled from an Acer I upgraded years ago. Also swapped the mechanical 2.5" for an SSD, and ended up getting a WiFi USB dongle to add 5Ghz capability to it - weird sense of satisfaction giving it a useful life again with a fresh W11 install (Rufus bypass TPM install image).
To your point, the vast majority of laptops never get upgraded - people decide they're "slow" and go out and get another $399 laptop.
