It is an easy fix. There's a bunch of thunderbolt ports on it. Get one of the USB4 or thunderbolt docks that have built-in NVME expansion. Not usb 10gbps or 20gbps. Usb 4.0 40gbps or higher. That gives you plenty of speed 5000+ in my experience plus extra USB ports card reader stuff like that you can even make your home folder external. Plus as it's external you can add heatsinks and fans if you want.

maybe not too many can afford them anymore...so either lower the prices or let them electronically rot in warehouses.

It's just matching edu pricing which is something that's been happening for a while, my guess is Amazon (and MC who is the more likely spot to get discounts on new machines) are getting more comfortable with the narrower margins.

*were selling like hotcakes

past tense, back when you could get a base model MM for a great price. they would go OOS frequently at Micro Center especially when it hit $399.

people are balking at the new pricing tiers. and the reason for the pricing cuts...is bc they are not selling as well
