I’m confused why this can’t be done in software?

    mount -t tmpfs ram /mnt/ramdisk

Products to attach RAM to expansion slots have long existed and continue to be developed. It's a matter of adding more memory once all of the DIMMs are full.

What to do with it, once it's there, is a concern of software, but specialized hardware is needed to get it there.
