I hope you or anyone else are not upset by this statement. Front end wafer fabrication is very complex. This is especially so for NAND. There are hundreds of processing steps required for each wafer to go through and the fabrication is akin to building a skyscraper in nano scale. It requires lots of talents to solve technical problems to not only make the device function properly, but also to achieve high yield and high reliability. This requires a lot of technical breakthroughs. However, backend facility is used for functional testing, wiring and assembly. It requires much lower technical expertise since there is no fabrication involved.
