Lesson hopefully learned: Don't link to the regurgitation of a regurgitation of a regurgitation of a Persian language article. At the very least go back the first English version of the article chain.
I kept trying to hammer this on Lemmy, but no one listens :( Mods also seem uninterested in information hygiene.

I know this is said in hindsight, but the way the first paragraph is written sets off alarm bells of weird reporting, and I imagine probably was what triggered you to look into it further.
While I get that Asus naturally would want to be competitive, why would they (from an economic standpoint) care about 'easing the rising costs' of their products. They would have actual motives like trying to be independent of these major memory manufacturers.
