Addressing hardware checklist critical feedback (#1080)

We're getting a lot of repeated requests during
inbounds on sizing VMs specifically.

Our baremetal and K8s checklists are slightly generic to this and imply
a baseline that may be uncommon within a virtualized context

This attempts to bring together a slightly wider band while emphasizing
that our high-watermark is intended for high performance, while the low
watermark is a bare minimum.
