15" has 16GB as an option, even the 13" cMBP is capable of 16GB after market, so what's the deal?

I suppose if 16GB RAM, more powerfull CPU and discrete GPU were as an extra-cost option then 15" sales would be decreased. It's just a marketing approach and nothing else. I'd buy one with pleasure if 16GB Quad Core i7 and any discrete GPU would be available with 13".
Is there an empty space on the logic board where another set of RAM chips would fit?

It says the same about the old 13" but you still can put 16GB in it. Use 2x8GB instead, I'd guess.
It would overheat all the time.

I doubt there's space left for anything. This is Apple we're talking about, they're already pushing it as it it were.

The reason apple only has 8 GB is built-in obsolescence.
2 x 8GB instead of 2 x 4GB, no extra space needed. Heat is not going to be a problem, going from 2 x 4 GB to 2 x 8 GB might require .5 to 1 watt more power which is nothing.
