Cost reduction in IC has reached or is reaching its limits. Intels 5n techk is not really a 5n and 5n is not really reachable. Not at least without some seriously new physics and even then there will be hard limits like quantum un--certainty. This particular chip may get cheaper if it is ever done in amounts but it is not guaranteed to get lot cheapaer
