re: primarily to lower costs

my take on it is that with current frequency of transitions from one process to another the cost benefit maybe negative. It makes sense to move to larger wafers for cost reduction

I still believe that it is power reduction. BTW I think lower geometry implys less power but, and I maybe completely wrong here, less power does not imply higher frequency

Just a thought
