Jeff, my I add one more thing you and Paul left out? Burnin. A poorly controlled fab process may require a number of hours of burnin at high cost to meet quality requirements. A clean process may require no burnin at all, or only limited or sample burnin. As for test, a well controlled process may not require testing at both temperature extremes. A process running across several sigma could require double the test socketings and double the cost. Once again these and all the examples you and Paul provided, shows how only looking at die size is a poor estimate of product cost. EP
