I don’t know anything about ARM, but is the IP ownership a big deal compared to the manufacturing?
My first reaction was to think I’d do everything possible to keep ARM as a domestic company, but does it even make a difference if they don’t actually produce (ex:) CPUs? I can’t run my workload on IP.
The expertise is worth something though. We’ve seen that in Canada with companies like Nortel. Once those companies are gone, the local expertise quickly follows and you become dependent on a foreign company, which is regulated by a foreign government, for part of your critical infrastructure. It’s extremely short sighted IMO and most people don’t even realize what’s being lost.
