I would guess heat, interference, and the fact that they make 2D chips by 
successively scraping layers off the top (essentially)?  First you have to 
invent a way of growing a transistor in the middle of a chip.

They do have "piggyback" type packaging, which helps.

This is one of the things that "optical" chips are supposed to help with.
