TSMC is spreading itself out due mostly to the PLA threat of invasion but also due to the log jams and shortages that were caused during the pandemic.
I believe they will rename the European fabs under "ESMC".
This also allows them to tailor chip production better to a region's needs.
You'll get better PC-based chips than the US plus they can also build a five year "fuse" into automotive chips for BMW.
