Sufficiently bone headed US military analysis that major TW media responded with "leave TSMC alone". TSMC doesn't major factor into PRC TW invasion plans since production relies on inputs US origin tech. Destroying TSMC is a PRC bargaining chip not vice versa. West industry makes most revenue (patent fees etc) with major strategic companies being existentially dependant on TW semi. PRC in has massive leverage over semi supply chain in war via ability to destroy East Asia semi supply chain vs west in peacetime via sanctioning.
