Im surprised they’re going that small, i was under the impression since there’s no atmosphere to hemp deter it bit flips were a much bigger concern which is part of why they still use such big chips?

I guess that's why they're testing them. Maybe there are some changes you can make to the hardware to mitigate the bit flipping.
