Costs do exist to be reduced. Unfortunately, the problem with fabs is that the yields from them start off very terribly due to small contamination problems. This problem will only increase as chips get smaller, and require smaller, more compact geometries. If companies could get cheap access to high quality vacuum, this problem would lessen greatly.
