Oh for sure. A story that gets told at the micron factory is that for a long time they'd experience chip failures at increased rates. During the night it was pretty good, but during the day these random failures would creep up.

After spending a lot of time studying the problem what they finally realized is they built the building too close to the interstate and vibrations from the interstate were ultimately making their way into the factory causing errors.

To combat this problem, they spent millions retrofitting shock absorbers onto the building.

It's not shocking that intel would do the same because even the slightest movements and vibrations can spoil the chips. Putting a restroom in the wrong spot might spoil a batch when someone flushes the toilet.
