    I wonder if in 5-10 years there will be a glut of semiconductor manufacturing capacity (in non leading edge fabrication processes).

      If it’s sub 10nm, it’ll be ‘good enough’ for common electronics. Cash registers, parking meters, iot and little sensors. Not all chips in cars have to be the latest tech; you don’t need the climate control or ECU to be on the bleeding edge, but it still takes up wafer & space.
