Anecdotal, so don't trust my word on that.
I was surprised, but Windows 10 seems to adapt to amount of RAM availiable and it even tries to function on 4GB systems while leaving some space for programs user needs. On 8GB it gets to use more resources itself. And on 16+ it doesn't change anymore.
I suspect it is their MO to convince the 7/8 users for the initial free-of-charge switch.
