Putting aside for a minute whether TSMC's interests and Taiwan's are the same, does Taiwan really want to be strategic to US security?

It probably comes with some benefits, but I doubt volunteering to be a potential hotspot for WW3 is really worth those benefits.

Taiwan being caught between US and People's Republic of China is less of a worry than Taiwan's existing concern of being caught between People's Republic of China and Republic of China (aka "Taiwan")
