Seems we are talking about two (maybe 3) different things here:

 * Some (maybe all) Librem laptops has only 1 RAM slot
 * Purism previously (possibly still) sell only up to 16GB RAM
   due to bigger single-slot RAM being to expensive/difficult to get
 * Maybe(!) some/all Librem laptops CANNOT address more than 16GB RAM

I think the last point is a misunderstanding - a confusion of the first 
2 points.  That confusion might have been communicated even by Purism 
support team at some point..

And again, I seem to recall some of my colleagues¹ mentioning that first 
model had 2 slots.

Official facts about Librem hardware (which isn't much, unfortunately) 
is collected at https://docs.puri.sm/
