Destroying Taiwan fabs would collapse global compute growth

Even if every TSMC process engineer were airlifted out and the fabs destroyed in a Taiwan conflict, replicating that built-up capacity elsewhere would take years; incremental compute capacity would fall from hundreds of gigawatts/year toward just 10-20 GW across Intel and Samsung, massively shrinking (not just slowing) global GDP and leaving China with the strongest remaining vertically integrated supply chain.
