Prove your claim that a mature process never drops below 0.10 There would be lots of qualifiers to "mature process". Many other important parameters also. If you take a step back you might not feel like arguing. fwiw

x86 cpu processes don't get that sort of defect density and neither AMD or Intel are claiming they do. If they did tri-core Phenoms would not be produced in quantity, the proof really is in the pudding. 0.03 might be an eventual target but they were actually getting 1 with their first attempt at EUV 45nm. AMD's current DD must be in the 0.3-0.4 range going by the December slide taken in conjunction with the July slide which is compatible with a lot of tri-cores being produced.
