I think there's a tendency to compare consoles of this era to the playstation. Sony basically invented the notion of selling hardware at a loss to make money from software sales and it was that risk in my opinion that started to push the tech.
Commodore barely had the cash to make the cd32 as it is so wouldn't of had a chance making it an 030 16mb ram aaa chipset. Even if they had of put the faster processor and more ram in it still likely would have put the cost out of the market.
It is what it is so let's make the most of that. No one has ever done a bad job in hindsight.
