DRAM pricing is killing the hobbyist SBC market
That's an apples to oranges comparison. Might as well bring up how people pay thousands of dollars for FPGA boards.

No. Many hobbyists default to SBCs whether they need them or not. No one defaults to FPGA if they don't need it.

My point is that the FPGA boards are several orders of magnitude more expensive than the actual chip. To be fair you should be comparing between the cost of the SoC and the microcontroller.
