Regarding the CRSS article, I make (more briefly) the same point I made in response the the Wednesday posting:
Even if it is not already too late to change "China’s resolve to move faster to achieve autonomy" - and I suspect that it is, given the recent actions of the US, including extraterritorial actions such as the pressure on ASML - the argument here seems incoherent.
If the idea is "to maintain a competitive edge", then this means allowing ("not ... preventing") China to continue to produce inferior semiconductors. Why would anyone think that attempting to consign China to a permanent inferior status would not similarly lead to attempts on the part of China to become more autonomous?
"we are now moving to public-health policymaking via leaked draft powerpoint document"
It's Lincoln's sin -- presuming the possibility of regaining unity with confederates -- in modern form.
At this point, the appropriate approach involves charging a whole lot of people with bio-terrorism, mandatory vaccination, and a whole lot else to achieve extirpation.
There are unrecoverable errors. There's been a bunch. Enough instances of unrecoverable turns into non-survivable.
