Purely from a technological standpoint (not humanitarian or geopolitical), I see annexation of Taiwan as a great thing to get US out of it's current laissez faire in Semiconductors, esp Intel. It would be a good wakeup call for Silicon Valley to stop working on Ad-Tech and start semiconductor startups to live up to its legacy dating back to 1970s. I am afraid, it won't be SV doing this, it will be Austin (R&D, currently Apple/Samsung SoC) and Phoenix (Manufacturing - currently, Fab-42 in Ocotillo).
