There are other US-based packaging - while it's unlikely to be relevant to AMD, Intel does some packaging in New Mexico.

Amkor is building a test and packaging facility in Arizona now, so there will eventually be domestic options.

Even if they are, it’s a positive.

It is potentially worth pointing out that container ships going back to Asia are basically empty, so that return shipping trip is basically free.
