Re: "It may be that Intel has different insulating materials, smaller channel lengths, different doping profiles, or thinner insulators. Any one of these factors may result in a diminished ability to operate at higher voltages. "

Don't you have this backwards? Wouldn't it be better stated that these are the process factors that allow them to run a lower voltages? They can always do bigger channels or thicker insulators. The trick is to do thinner.
