@skullgiver@LaughingFox It’s not programmer laziness at all, RAM modules’ size has to be of a power of 2 on most platforms because of various assumptions the CPU makes in memory alignment and memory bulk reads for performance reasons. Processors don’t interact directly with the flash dies, so it’s fine for them to be of the size they feel like provided the controller knows what it’s doing.
