That's a great way to lower the cost of the current generation of the tech while ensuring there is no next generation of the tech.

I don't think that makes any sense whatsoever.

If everyone could make these machines, there'd be more of these machines.

There are so many examples of this out there, already, that I find this specious "no next generation" argument to be either simply coming from bias, or ignorance.

For sure, we only care about Taiwan because there is one Taiwan. End patents: no more Taiwan problem.
