>but I wonder if the square of die size for yield is appropriate or if it should be a something closer to the actual die size<

Actually, it is more accurate to take the square of the percentage yield as die size doubles. So if one gets an 80% yield at one die size, doubling the die size would reduce percentage yield to 64%. Thus the actual yield in number of good die per wafer would decrease by about 60%.
