Hello professor Bram Nauta, it is also the high Current (in Power Electronics) that is an issue which is controlled by switches like IGBT (insulated gate bipolar transistor) in those applications. I have worked in Analog VLSI industry (mainly 65 nm, 45 nm CMOS transistors) and my observation is that the whole industry (in Cadence, Synopsys) tracks Voltage variations in very high detail, however we (Analog VLSI community) do not track the Current variations (in Cadence, Synopsys) in our work normally as well as the IEEE Power Electronics community for example.
The size comparison is not fair, since external components require a standardized package with a substantial footprint. Nice to see this development end up as configurable components in embedded microcontrollers, alongside ADCs, OpAmps and comparators.

Great video
