Value kindforecast — Forecasts are time-bound outlooks, not specifications; test decisions across plausible scenarios.
CaveatContested as of Aug 2026: SemiAnalysis (2026-07-05) reports Kyber NVL144 slipping to 2028 on PCB-midplane manufacturability, NVL576 delayed or volume-restricted on CPO maturity, the NVL72x2 copper stopgap cancelled, and CPO-NVSwitch pushed to Feynman; NVIDIA's same-week reply was 'our roadmap remains intact' with no SKU-level rebuttal. Keep 576/1152 as announced figures; do not schedule against them.
