So why not make the determination of "dirhash_maxmem" the result of some
calculation(s) that takes into account RAM size, etc ?

The obvious lesson here is that picking a number to be a limit based on
the current size of machines fails the test of time.

I think that changing it now without a mechanism to reduce the memory amount in case of memory shortages would be a violation of the Principle of Minimal Surprise.
