Yes that's my take as well. It might be TSMC trying to survive, and America trying to deprive themselves of a future war to defend TSMC or China's inevitable taking of TSMC.
I don't see how it helps Taiwan that much, but perhaps it makes it less attractive to China to take if TSMC can move.

Taiwan's semiconductor industry is literally not even a factor that plays into China's wish to reunify. It won't make a lick of difference.
