Agreed, it seems like NVIDIA would be happy to make whole-wafer chips if it seemed like a good play.

My guess is there are a lot of bespoke limitations that the software has to work around to run on a "whole wafer" chip, and even companies that have 99% similar designs to Nvidia already are struggling to deal with software incompatibilities, even with such a tiny difference.
