If it is so obvious I wonder why people still claim that they will make decisions that will go against this principle. Scarce resource allocation is not that hard to comprehend. And until 28nm really ramps up well, there isn't any clear reason to rush out the bigger chip if the smaller will sell at the same price point one would previously expect the 500+mm chip to sell for.
