But the manufacturing jobs are already increasingly marginalized by technology. So the number of jobs "coming back" will be far fewer than the number that left, and the number of jobs will only decrease with time. In addition, increased costs of labor would further incentivize technological adaptations to replace that cost.

That's ideal, but unless the government decides it wants a smaller piece, it's not going to happen naturally.

Maybe, but that's probably industry and product specific, and even then, I don't think the quality improvements will be drastic since human labor is a more limited variable.
