Andrew Sharp was reflecting on how chip export loopholes are often framed as urgent strategic mistakes. He says that, given China's compute shortfalls, the outcome of US policy is better than the process that produced it.

And it's been known about for a long time. NBIS just won't touch it.
Yeah. Well, and I going back to our conversation a couple of weeks ago, in terms of where we are, I think that the chip issue and specifically the loopholes in our existing framework, they're often framed as urgent and grave strategic errors. And I do think there's room to debate whether that's actually true when you look at the compute deficiencies on the Chinese side, even under the current framework. I think the policies have been pretty effective at locking in American advantages. The process, though, has been so dysfunctional and corrupted. And that is where I think there should be a lot more scrutiny over the next year or two here. And
that, I think, is the entry point for the Democrats if it's on their long list of things to look at. But again, the chip stuff is a priority for a fair number of members on the Hill. And so this may be an entry point to have an investigation that looks like it's not just rich, you know, a sort of…
