This might be a stupid question but why do the transistors always need to get smaller to make the chip faster, cant you just use the same 22nm size but actually make the processor bigger? I understand this cant go on forever as the chip cant me 1 meter in size but surly a CPU could easily be tripped in size to fit a shit load more transistor inside of it? Why is this not the case?

EDIT: I'm really just asking because I know we are nearing the limit when quantum theory will start to interfere with the way the chip works. So instead of going smaller with the transistor I was thinking of just scaling up the physical CPU dimensions.

Wow thank you very detailed answer.

He also seems have have super strength some times like when he punches a supervillain and doesn't just break his arms or when he gets thrown thru a fucking wall and seems to be completely fine. Also his terrible, terrible gadgets actually work on dudes with superpowers. If you actually watch the fights in the JLA comics/animated films Batman basically has powers otherwise any of the action scenes would be terrible. I'd love to see an actual true telling of someone with no powers trying to fight superpowered beings. I mean really Darkseid could just clap his hands and the shock wave would kill batman.
