The difference in die size is 68%, meaning that Intel's yield must be at least 40% better than AMD's.

???

If AMD claims 10-20% cost advantage the must mean they are getting 10-20% more die from a wafer, right? So their yield is better but with the much smaller die it should be much much better, and it's not. So yield is better but defect density is much higher.
