“The GaAs crystal is naturally five-sided, so it forces the SiGe to take on the same hexagonal shape...”
I must be missing something here - why not pentagonal?

Computers are so fast that physical size is a limiting factor. Using light for longer distances (we’re talking inches) across circuits allows for larger overall size.

GaAs is not “five-sided”. It has the cubic zincblends structure.

Moore’s law is limited by physics
Moreover they should have said decades... this has been chased since the eighties
