#2I might be making a fool of myself but isn’t Moore’s law about computational capacity rather than size/number of transistors? Or maybe that’s the modern simplification..
What I’m getting at is that the “law” might be more or less substrate independent.

Indirectly moores law relates to computational capacity. directly, its about the number of transistors doubling every two years, and [cost] for that increase also decreasing. Moores hits a wall when you account for thermal penalties attached to ever miniaturizing the junction and the CPU.
there is perhaps a step funtion involved with quantum computational mechanisms, such that the ratio of computational capacity to individual gates is higher than with silicon junctions or nanosheets

#5This is pretty cool, and an excellent discussion of the trade offs on different transistor designs.
