Lots of games "out of the box" assume slow ram at $c00000, and will simply not work without it.
Most games at the start of the 1Meg revolution assumed slow ram above chip ram and real fast ram.
Also, lots of crappy memory detection routines don't work properly, but will with slow ram.
Sure, lots of this stuff can be fixed, but simply having slow ram means you're covered, and its not like its expensive anymore!
