Not so fast! I must object to the loophole you claim to have found. I said the wafers would be free; testing ~100 trillion of them to find the best costs extra

I never even thought of that angle - do you know how much better such a part would realistically be? I thought binning was mostly a matter of defect reduction (where some defects are slight). But at that extreme level, it could be a different game altogether.
