I don't think this is true, and I would like to see an explanation of how it might be that quantifies the effect: are we talking electric field strength or magnetic field strength? Modern parts are generally better at ESD than old ones, as well.

Why 130nm?

Unless this extends to many days, the diesel generators will cover this easily.

most datacenters do not use diesel, but gas/methane/natural gas - utility connection, that way you do not need to truck/store anything.

and so being located in middle of city you do not want ten of thousands of liters of diesel in tanks there.

same applies for luxury high rises in europe, almost all if not all of 20+ story buildings built last 30 years have them on roofs.

Why? Every gas station stores that capacity.

gas stations, at least in europe, have "safety zone" around them.

also depends on data center, some datacenters are directly in middle of european city. in most dense part of city and dense in europe or asia is something else then dense in america.
