For that simply plug in the Pimoroni Plus 2 W. :) Linky
It's not a cheap module (£16.80) but it includes 16MB flash, 8MB PSRAM and Qwiic. I think the PSRAM select is on GP47, where you would expect it for Pimoroni. It may be changeable, I'm not sure.
If you aren't bothered about wifi/bluetooth then they also do the pico-plus-2 for £12.90 in the same form factor. You may get the A2 stepping chip though.
I don't know of any other 40-pin module that includes PSRAM.
I'm guessing that the cases were intended for something like an active antenna. The outer finish is far nicer than I'd expect for something like a thermostat and the cable entry position is nicely rounded (I tried but I couldn't make use of it!).
