Jack Tramiel didn't want to spend money. Ever notice why the C-16 had less memory than the C-64? They didn't want to pay for it which means they were stealing from the customer by giving consumers less.
WTF are you talking about? Jack Tramiel gave us the B128 (128k of RAM) and the B256 (256k of RAM) in 1983.
The B256 which you famously refused to buy, saying "I want less memory!"
