The question: is your economic policy goal the cheapest cost of production wins? regardless of the location or the second / third order effects?

OR

is the economic policy locally mfg goods with better delivery times and less potential supply chain disruptions, with a stronger domestic money flows for financing?

If you pick the second, the only pain is the transition from the first to the second, and that can be temporary.
