New MacBook Air Configuration Prices

If you want to buy the cheapest MacBook Air 2018, have 1.349 euros ready. If you want the full equipment with 16 GB of RAM and 1,5 TB of storage expansion, then it's already 3.089 euros. In the following table I have compiled the various configurations and prices for you:

While writing the table, I noticed that the two options that you can select when buying (128 GB and 256 GB) do not differ as soon as you add the same memory with the same RAM. Otherwise the specs are the same. So I don't quite understand why Apple is opening up two options here. If any of you readers can enlighten me, please leave a comment;)
