How about heat? Seems these days it's the heat above everything else that's the issue. And more density would only aggravate it.
I wonder if the proposed CPU/GPU laser cooling technique that was on here a few days ago would penetrate the Si layers?

What you loose in heat you gain in speed caused by proximity. Perhaps this will allow for lower voltage and thus less heat.
This seems like it could accelerate the transition to sub-1nm nodes (previously projected to mid 2030s), maybe by the end of this decade.
