    Even if we magically restart facilities that used to be around, they’ll be on the older, larger architectures we can’t fit in ourr pockets

    ok so you’re not wrong on the fundamentals but… you should know - you’d need to go back to the 80s for the fabrication scale to actually have much effect on the size of devices.
