That is indeed one of the plusses/pros of the Mac mini vs. the iMac. $599 (plus whatever RAM/SSD upgrades one might want) is an easier swing than $1,299 and up.
I'll feel better about this new iMac once they start to exist in the real world and reviews start to hit. Right now, that machine is quite "up in the air", just because nobody outside Apple has seen/used one yet (or if they have, they're not allowed to say anything just yet; I have a feeling Gruber and others had one sent to their house within the past 7-10 days).
So many things are just unknown right now, during this transition. I'm hoping the second half of 2021 things are much clearer and easier to weigh out.
