thats not a very convincing model. as long as training data and compute is available people are going to be able to make serviceable alternatives

If it's framed as national security being at stake why do you think the government won't regulate access to compute? Globally there are only a few firms designing competitive chips and only a handful of cutting edge fabs the world over. This could easily serve as justification to finally ramp up the war on general computing.
