Still recall when, I think it was AMD 150nm shrink was delayed and finally was released after they started using more expensive copper. That was beginning of current rabbit hole of rare earth minerals, toxic chemicals, and ultra expensive tools for ever more minimal improvements in which we find ourselves today.
