Size doesn't matter, usually.
...which we understand is a 12nm node. While advanced, this is some way behind cutting-edge processes such as Taiwanese chip giant TSMC's 2nm N2 process, now in mass production.
I always find these sorts of comparisons a bit strange. Producing semiconductors at 2nm is very expensive and only really makes economic sense for a small number of chips. You want the CPU of a smartphone to produce as little heat and use as little precious battery power as possible. That's is where you take the leap to 2nm.
For 90% of chips, and certainly those in manufacturing processes used outside of Asia, that is not needed. Europe has no smartphone manufacturing plants. Europe produces cars (close to half of all cars sold in the world are European), rockets, aeroplanes, industrial processing machinery etc. that are of strategic importance and for those you don't need, and sometimes purposefully don't want, cutting edge chip manufacturing for applications where reliability and predictability is more important. There is still a huge market for chips made with the (gasp!) 180nm process, everyone will have many dozens of those in devices in their house and car.
I'd go one step further, even in your PC nearly all chips will be made with bigger processes than 2nm as probably only the CPU and GPU benefit from those very small processes. For the majority of chips it's not worth it.
