The core argument of the article is that the 55-45 policy is more of an anxiety boundary for the U.S. rather than a constraint on Taiwan. Taiwan possesses high irreplaceability in advanced logic chip manufacturing. If the U.S. mandates that half of chips be produced domestically, the subsidies, tax incentives, and infrastructure costs required would be enormous, with both efficiency and costs far exceeding the current Taiwan-based manufacturing system. For Taiwan's industry players, this policy boundary can actually become a negotiating leverage—because it is the U.S., not Taiwan's currently capable chipmakers, that faces genuine pressure on technology, cost, and timeline. This does not mean there are no risks, but interpreting the 55-45 policy directly as "Taiwan weakened" is not accurate.
