Do you have a point? There's nothing technically wrong with saying that TPUs with ICI are a supercomputer- they are very similar in design to the T3E I used decades ago.
Please make your point instead of trying to negate whatt I said.
Medium matters a lot- because supercomputers are fundamentally constrained by physics in terms of power dissipation, transistor density, and speed of light, all-optical networks have slightly lower latencies than electrical, and also let you build larger systems (longer cables).
