Unused RAM is wasted RAM, dynamic RAM allocation should mean when your OS detects you've got plenty of free unused RAM, it's welcome to grab some for caching things.
Low RAM usage is retarded and anyone who aims for a "debloated" idle desktop just means they love waiting for their SSD or hard drive to retrieve commonly used OS elements, instead of allowing them to be cached and almost instantly retrieved from RAM.
i commonly go over 8gb with just normal shit so 16 is nice

You're confusing things. Do people aim for debloated idle desktops by disabling dynamic RAM allocation? No, they're just aiming to reduce the footprint of the software that needs to be cached at idle. Two totally different things. You can aim for a debloated desktop and still take advantage of RAM caching.
