The status quo was much more beneficial for each of these nations. They got to maintain a leading edge in their respective parts of the supply chain and China kept growing as a customer and buying more. Essentially what will happen now is China will never buy from these nations when they become self-sufficient. The sanctions are willing state-backed Chinese competitors for all of these companies into existence where there either was none before or they weren't competitive. That will all change now, within a decade or so China will have caught up and now you will have an absolute powerhouse that is fully self-sufficient. Essentially the US and her allies traded a situation where they could perpetually keep China a generation behind for a situation where China might fall behind pretty rapidly for a few years but will roar back and likely be more competitive than they have ever been. I fail to see how this isn't against the interests of the Dutch, Japanese or for that matter the South Koreans and Taiwanese.
