This is the first release. They test the market and optimize. BTW, I have an old M1 with 8gb and works well for some kind of [light?] development. Not using xcode but vscode.
Apple recently released open models. I wouldn’t be surprised if they start shipping increasingly capable models as part of their platform offering. That would fit perfectly with their hardware trajectory.

There are documented public disputes about Gecko Security’s conduct when it comes to claiming credit for vulnerability research. For example, FuzzingLabs publicly accused Gecko Security of copying PoCs and submitting CVE reports for vulnerabilities that FuzzingLabs had originally disclosed, and of misdating their posts to make it appear they found them first. Gecko publicly denied intentional wrongdoing, but later updated their attributions to credit the original researchers [1].
