Editing a 4K video with only 8GB of RAM may work if tyat video is 10
seconds long, but doubtful we're talking about editing a full  episode
of Mandalorians  with all the special effects.

Apple focused a LOT on videos editing during keynote. There are 2
classes of usesr that really care about real performance: video editors
and gamers (who rely more on the GPU).

If the target audience was video editing, then yes, Apple should have
had real benchmarks since the M1 macs appear to have substantial
erformance improvements. But having vague grand statements, graphs
without any numbers/scale, it poited to Apple not being too happy with
performance and not wantint to provide real numbers.

It was a missed opportunity for Apple.
