So Intel and Samsung both said High NA is better for Logic chips?

Mark Slezak, the president of JSR USA (a photoresist supplier), suggested that EUV technology could last 20 years. He drew parallels with the extended use of DUV lithography, which lasted much longer than anticipated due to innovations like immersion lithography and multi-patterning. Slezak believes similar advancements could prolong EUV's relevance, with High-NA EUV being a potential example.

I assume everyone at the meeting looked at each other very nervously because those "innovations" for DUV were deperately needed because EUV was heavily delayed.
EUV and High-NA are going to need to stick around because next gen Hyper-NA is reportedly extremely expensive (500 million per machine at least) and companies are getting antsy with the costs.
