How does using CF based disks impact the desirability of adding RAM to a player? (Mk2 or Mk2a)

Adding RAM to the player [1] increases the space available for the database, so you can have big disks with lots of music and [2] increases the amount of cache you have to keep hard drives spun down for longer. Oh yeah, also there is [3] more RAM available for 3rd party software.

[1] is irrelevant in a CF system as CF cards are simply not big enough (yet) to fill with enough music and make database size much of an issue. [2] is irrelevant in a CF system as its all solid state and fine for reading from while driving down a cobbled street. [3] is the only reason you'd want to upgrade the RAM in a CF Empeg I guess.
