There is more co development and risk sharing than you think. TSMC has nodes only apple uses.



They do, but as far as I know those nodes are just early/late verisons and tweaks to the main, popular process.


But if Apple pays TSMC $$$$$$$$ in advance to build a 2nm node production line especially for Apple, and it turns out the 2nm node doesn't deliver the hoped-for improvements in power efficiency? The money's already spent.
