    It’s quite interesting that no other country has managed to build a chip foundry that would even remotely rival TSMC.

    Especially considering they use third-party lithography machines.

      I don’t think the foundries are the limiting factor. There’s a shit ton of engineering going into every step of the fab process and most of those experts are in Taiwan.
