The passage around this formula

Anchoring at R0R_0 = 200 Gb/s per lane, t0t_0 = 2026 , and holding the most recently observed four-year doubling period fixed gives R(2035) = 200 ⋅\cdot 2^{9/4} ≈\approx 950 Gb/s per lane by 2035 — essentially a 1 Tb/s single electrical lane. That number is offered to be doubted, not believed. The assumption it…
