TSMC says efforts to rebuild US semiconductor industry are doomed to fail

Real nonsense, I agree!
In order to be sure, it is quite enough to look at the product life cycle at such an enterprise! There are materials on YouTube, I strongly recommend that you get acquainted with them. So, in order not to waste a lot of time, the critical influence of a person in this process is minimal. Everything else is 101% automated, with 100,500 sensors and quality control circuits. What people ? There is a real participation of people, in production, well, let it be 5%, and then I am sure of a clean process, or rather the life cycle of chip production.
But I agree that in the scientific research part, the "percentage of people" is higher. But these are unique specialists with great motivation, of which there are only a few!
