I would not worry to much about the memory usage. Although I have managed to get it to crash once, (almost certainly on account of memory handling) I had to go out of my way to do it.
Before that memory usage with a 14 day up-time was hovering in the mid 70% region and it looks like buffers were being reused (occasionally the % used dropped a bit).
The other thing is that this is a newly released AX modem/router and firmware can take time to mature. It needs lots of people to own one, expose it to different conditions/setups and tell Asus when there are issues. My bet though is that given a relative lack of competition for single box AX solutions and slow rate of innovation in the market, they will get the ongoing sales that justify providing good support and firmware development.
I think it will a long time until there is something I would consider replacing it with, (say a single box wifi 6e solution with mesh capability and one or more 2.5 Gbe ports)
