I presume you meant "fix" not "fit". You are wrong that the market will not fix the issue. There are literally millions of observed cases across many markets of increased demand (or decreased supply) leading to higher prices leading to increased supply leading to lower prices, which is why it's a fundamental law of economics.
The price of RAM will fall.

Also they're talking about the short to medium term. On that time scale they're not wrong. The market is so far from fixing it right now, it's going in the opposite direction. The market is chasing HBM money which is outbidding everything else.

And if that might take 5+ years, that's not much comfort.
> higher prices leading to increased supply leading to lower prices
So far higher prices are causing barely any supply increases. (Note that the article we're commenting on is about a supply decrease.) Companies are barely trying to expand, and even if they do start trying hard it'll take a very long time.
