Note that when you start talking about multiple 10s of TiB of ram, you start having to buy super high density dims which are very expensive (because not many of them get made and anyone who needs one has lots of money)

Yes, true. But at that point you have to run on exotic 4p/8p systems since you start running out of memory channels.

256GB DIMMs go for ~3k, so 133k for just 1TB is still a bit much.
