If China invaded Taiwan, and the world response was something like the response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine (economic isolation), it would mean losing 500 billion dollars of imported products, and an uncountable loss of products that are dependent of that 500 billion. Look at what a small kink in chip supply is doing to car pricing and supply. Imagine instead of a kink in the supply chain, the supply goes to zero for several years. Now imagine that affecting thousands of products that are either wholly manufactured in China and Taiwan, or dependent on components made in China and Taiwan.
