Also, It does not mean 16nm is cheaper than 20nm... the smaller the feature size, the more the wafer costs. Also, this is aggregate revenue at the foundry, and is ignoring things like tapeout costs.
Not trying to crap on the tech, but it's not so simple as we can merely go to the fab and get small quantities of full custom, 100% yielding chips, for 6k ea.
