Probably because a 32gb limit would cannibalize the MacBook Pro with M1 pro/max.

I think it's 3 memory buses because it's rated at 50% more memory bandwidth than the M1.

50% improvement should be by adopting LPDDR5 that they announced. I suspect they switched from 64Gb to 96Gb DRAM chip stack.

I was waiting for today to buy a macMini for my wife whose 2012 iMac died. So I'm unhappy as well and just bought a M1 macMini because I can't wait any longer.

I wonder if a M2 mini would have been perceived as competition for the macStudio.

I don't think so. The smallest Studio has twice as many Firestorm cores and the M2 tops out at 24GB.

It has 2 memory chips that appear smaller than the ones on m1 pro and max.
