I don't think I see it. If people need chips and no one makes em, a hobbyist becomes really valuable. And lithography touches on photography itself. We might not be able to get to the same precision as TSMC or the like but building an 8088 chip or the like should be doable. If we forgot how to make lenses, that would be worrying.
