      We old-timers have heard that exact argument for like forever. Didn’t happen.

      Even Intels chief engineer thought that after 3um there would be impossible to reach 1um.

      1um = 1000nm BTW and we’re at like 3nm

      I’m reading the other comments, and wondering why do people need to be binary like that? Yes, diminishing returns are a thing, so we shouldn’t expect the same degree of improvements, but stating hard limits is also something that usually gets laughed several years later.
