I can't change what you believe, but as far as I understand the American manufacturing industry, there is zero chance they could build a WiFi 8 router in the time period where it's the current standard. Not low, zero.

This article is a good example: https://archive.is/RAZMJ

Apple, with all their resources, couldn’t even get American screws. Now, if they really wanted to, they could have spun up their own screw manufacturing, eventually. But for a router, you need a lot more than screws. Resistors, capacitors, PCBs, plastics, all the secondary and tertiary industries for the materials behind those--it would probably take decades and trillions of dollars.
