As another example, NAND is manufactured on 40nm and for the foreseeable future it'll be. https://thememoryguy.com/why-3d-nand-is-stuck-at-40nm/

I’d love to be able to fab my own designs, 40nm would be awesome. Yes there are projects where you can. But they allow small area/transistor counts. Pcbway for chips would be amazing!

won't happen for such a complicated process like 40nm. The design tooling itself would cost 100s of k$.
