I doubt that regular cellphone transistor can _switch_ at 200Ghz; their GBW might be in that range, but for reliable switching you need clock frequency at most 1/10 of GBW

They can, as calculated by switching delays of simple circuits like inverters and NANDs (so simpler than a FO4).

Actually it's probably more like 200 than 300, I haven't seen 3nm models but transistors are still getting faster.
