This isn't a generalizable problem. There just aren't many companies that would be in a comparable situation to Intel.

Intel is:

* Critical to national security

* An advanced, industry that's extremely hard to spin up

* Essentially, one of two companies in it's industry.

Very few other companies meet all of those criteria.

Intel wanted the 9 billion in CHIP Act money that was being withheld and was willing to make a deal for 10% equity in order to get it.
