I meant MARKET volume. The QC market is much lower volume than the DC market, and has higher ASPs, so you use your DC dies to make MCM-based QCs first, then sell DCs when you've ramped more volume.

I was not bashing MCM yields vs "native" QC yields. Anyone who isn't a moron realizes that the MCM approach has a yield advantage.
