Doesn't the shipping time matter, though? And haven't we recently seen that long supply lines are brittle?

I was thinking also in terms of the scale of people required to operate them, plus the transport etc. infrastructure to keep them running. All that, and a hypothetical US factory would have labor costs 5x or higher. That would seem to make it an emergency-only scenario?
I just don't see the scenario where such a fab would make economic sense.
