If fab supplies are limited, some people will be SOL anyway even if prices rise. It's not like higher prices are magical and mean that everyone who needs something will get it. It's just that those who do buy at inflated prices will get reamed.

If you create a product that adds enough value that people still want it with the high prices you'll be able to afford space at the remaining fabs. Low value add products will stop being produced until supply catches up. Yes, the TSMC customers will displace some of Intels/Samsungs, but the most important products will continue to be made.
