Wouldn't RAM on die mean lower wafer yield?

This is about RAM on the package not RAM on the die. It honestly makes no sense why we don't have CPUs and RAM soldered to the motherboard right next to the CPU package. I love being able to change the stuff myself, but any reasonable repair shop could be doing that for you and we can have much higher performance than we currently have. It's not like there's really many viable options anyways. AMD has what four good CPUs intel has like two, and there's two good ram ICS.

Can it not just be socketed next to the CPU?

We seem to socket CPUs just fine.

On an ATX motherboard maybe, but there would be no space on a laptop or ITX board.
