ASML only makes a certain number of machines a year that can do extreme ultra-violet lithography.
Also - turbine blades limit power, according to Elon.
Between them - we cannot chip fabs past a certain rate, and we cannot stand up the datacenter to run these desired chips past a certain rate. Different people believe one or the other is the 'true' current bottleneck. The turbine supply chain scaling looks much more tractable -- EUV is essentially the most complicated production process humans have ever devised.
