7nm is really just a node name. Gate length is probably about 20nm. Still very impressive though!

  The gate pitch is 54mm for TSMC and 56nm for Global Foundries @ 7nm.

    > 54mm Typo for nm, presumably :-).

      The funny thing about 54mm is that this is pretty close to the original gate pitch, back when we had to use vacuum tubes or relays.

    That's the distance between gate midpoints, not their characteristic dimension.
