I disagree. It's widely known that burst memory isn't guaranteed, and you should never rely on it. To offer more burst than you can actually provide isn't actually overselling, it's only considered overselling if you were to guarantee more than you can technically provide everyone simultaneously.
Back to Artashes: As mentioned, there's not a standard ratio generally accepted or used & it really comes down to how it's managed the actual customers.
