But you still need to have the same wafer area if you are keeping the same sensor size. So you can't have 300mm wafers at <10nm, you still need 864+mm (for a FF sensor).

That’s the sensor area. GP is referring to the diameter of the wafer, on which you can fit many 36x24mm full frame sensors. Larger wafers improve throughput and thus reduce cost per sensor.
Oh yep, misread it.
