Look, the plural of anecdotes is not data, but you can't argue against the general trend of "applications using web frameworks like Electron tend to consume more RAM" by saying "well in this specific case they made poor design decisions that would bite anyone in the ass"; while that may be true it misses the point, which is the much larger (and well-correlated) & overarching tendency of such apps to absolutely chew RAM.
