If China took Taiwan, they would be selling to the rest of the world most likely. However, perhaps they are planning for a case where the US bombed the crown jewels to maintain supremacy. That would create profits for a domestic sector.
The USG is perfectly happy to spend taxpayer money and foreigners' money to make their corporate constituency happy even if the financial equation is overall negative.
