The article quoted 3 engineers who didn't fancy picking the slack of American engineers who are unlikely to work the long hours that has made tsmc the world leader in the most advanced technology in the world.
They are probably right, but it don't mean Americans are lazy though.  They value other things in life, nothing wrong with that. 
But it does mean tsmc America is unlikely to have the same throughput and cost of manufacture of the same product to the same quality as the Taiwanese operation. Chip costs will go up, either tsmc sells all chips at same price wherever produced or they sell US made chips at higher price to the US customers who insist on sourcing from the US.  Can't see the latter as that will seriously embarrass the Americans and become political, so tsmc will take the hit but become less competitive because of American operations, and will in time close it down as non performing, after having taken CHIPS money.  
Can't beat the profit effort equation at the end of the day. It's clear that the reason tsmc are leaders is because they have such dedicated engineers so invested in their company's success.
