      Yes, because if “no one can”, than that not only removes a reward from China for invading, it also adds a serious negative to China since its tech relies on TSMC and provides incentive for other countries to defend Taiwan.

      “If we can’t have it, no one can!!” is the best stance to prevent a war in the first place.

            Which is still like three years behind the yields that TSMC achieves. If they thought they could take TSMC fabs with little effort and without consequence, they would. A killswitch negates their benefit in trying to take it, as another commenter said, preventing war.
