As another software dev, I would pay big money for the "worst possible computer" that exhibits all of the glitches and issues that end users see. It's so annoying to get bug reports that I can't reproduce.
I had my time during my embedded days - did a site visit 1000 km away and discovered no wonder the serial port and scanner/printer is going wonky.
No shielding, earth - using the crappiest/cheapest PC they could get instead of using the recommended kit as the sales droid wanted a bigger commission.
Said call me when you replaced the h/w - I walked out and went to the airport.
They never called me.
Got ECC memory in my server - I am a value for money - my previous kit was i7-6700 system 48GB so I really sweated it until Jetbrains let me know "She canno go more Captain".
DDR4/Intel motherboards are cheaper than AM5/DDR5 - also a Ryzen laptop foobarred on my daughter so to me Intel kit was just more stable - no weird XMP issues or overclocking to the nines.
