1) Apple's webpage says that the SSD is "not user accessible" but does not say it cannot be replaced. Our assumption is that they are the same board on the 21" so still removable (the T2 chip is still not present in the 21" models, and the T2 does not work with mechanical drives, which are still an option in the 21"). The 27" has a new board and the T2 chip, so those are likely soldered in, which is also why there is no longer a mechanical drive option in the 27".
2) RAM is still super cheap and super easy to replace in the 27", so not a terribly big deal. The 21" is still a pain in the can.
