So I tested this by capitalizing a file name. There was no "Transformations" option in the menu bar/edit menu. So I right clicked the highlighted file name and voila!... there it was.

Hi-res lossless over bluetooth (done correctly would be the killer "app".

So, after all the lovely thoughtful comments here …

I’ll add that my personal experience bears this out. My M1 Max MBP 32Gb absolutely kept up with the Alienware R12 i7 64Gb. The only difference between the two was the graphics card (NVIDIA) performance and the ability to ramp up the processor cycles (and sound like a hair dryer).

I pushed the limits of both machines in video encoding and streaming. 

Your mileage may vary.

Same here. I went from 128GB on an 2019 iMac to 32GB on a Mac Studio. I've been skeptical about getting by with only 32GB, but last week I transcoded a 2 hour 4K video while streaming Apple Music and local photos to two sources, and using Pixelmator Pro and Safari... and the RAM barely scratched 24GB.

So so far RAM hasn't been an issue for me. But as Apple adds more features to MacOS I don't see anyway how 8GB would be enough to be productive as these computers age.

Desktop widgets seem to be a big idea in Mac OS Sonoma.  But why? I think the Dashboard introduced way back in Tiger was a way more elegant application of widgets. Instead of having them cluttering up the desktop, they were out of the way, easily summoned with a left-to-right swipe gesture. And you could clip any part of a webpage and make it an interactive widget. I clipped the local radar feed from a weather webpage, and the radar widget I created updated in real time. It was extremely useful. and completely out of the way when I didn't need it.
