the Chinese will eventually solve their launcher issue
It's been 15 years since the first Falcon 9 launch, and 10 years since the first Falcon 9 came back to earth and landed. When you say "eventually" just how long are we talking about here? As another commenter said, just wait until Starship is launching stuff into orbit. That will be even more disruptive than Falcon 9.
About 25 years ago the Chinese were flying re-hashes of reverse engineered Soviet fighter designs from the 1960s. They then license produced the Su-27 and developed it through several variants until today where the J-16 is the best Su-27 derivative flying with its AESA radar (the Su-35 has a PESA) and much better missiles than any the Russians have. From there they went to building 5 gen and 5.5 gen fighters and now they are building 6th gen fighters that have the US seriously worried. How long will it take the Chinese to overtake you in reusable launch vehicle technology? Dunno, but I'm pretty sure it that if they put their mind to it it will take them far less time to catch up with the US in reusable launch technology than the 25 years it took them to catch up with you in bleeding edge fighter design because the Chinese state will put it's entire portfolio of resources into the effort. China also is in a very different place today technologically than it was in 2000 and so is the USA. The US graduates 700.000 stem graduates per year, China graduates 4.000.000 stem graduate per annum and the Trump administration is currently taking an axe to the H-1B visa system and is hard at work demolishing the US university system which is the beating heart of any US ambitions to dominate high tech. I'm absolutely certain China will do nothing benefit from their manpower advantage, the commitment of the Chinese state to make these things happen and the utter idiocy of the Trump administration. Now go home, nurse your hurt fee fees and mod me down to 'Flaimbait', I genuinely do not care.
