I bought 2x 21.5" 2011 iMacs as refurbs when Apple regressed the 2012 21.5" iMac by halving the memory.

There are plenty of reasons for why so. A bigger display, more powerful hardware, etc.
What I'm wondering is why not?

A 27" is too big and wobbly, plus it looks terrible with a full screen web browser.
I'm better off with 2x21.5" iMacs, thank you very much.

Why do you need 32 GB RAM for web browsing? 🙄
Fine, I won't question your logic anymore, just enjoy your 2x 21.5" iMacs.

Who said anything about 32gb of memory for web browsing only? Stop rolling your eyes and read what's written.

If you don't like a web browser taking up a whole 27" you can simply size the browser window down a bit, and when you're doing whatever else you do with that 32 GB of RAM you can enjoy a nice big 27" display. Makes sense to me.
