Die size increases cost exponentially, by decreasing chips per wafer and decreasing yield.

I expect that this kind of burned-in model is also very difficult to verify (how do you know if some of the weights are off), and not amenable to partial disablement to increase yield. For CPUs, you just laser disable bad cores. Can't forego part of a neural net.
