Depends on how critical TSMC will remain, there's also chance US will have to work with PRC to ensure production continuity. IMO preserving fabs as leverage is probably top priority for all parties concerned, no one gains from it's destruction. The scenario where US controls inputs, PRC controls fabs, TW controls production is still preferable to scenario where destroyed fabs grinds advanced industries around world (mostly in the west) to a crawl.
