Without further context, we cannot say whether a lower number of robots in the US is an indication of inferiority or superiority to China.
Example: A company I was working for produced booklets with their own autmatic book printing binding machine. Not long ago, they outsourced it to a printer because it was cheaper that way. So the single more capable printer's "robot" is replacing the need for a lot of other not so efficient small "robots".

So your first sentence should not have China as a subject. >Without further context, we cannot say whether a lower number of robots in the US is an indication of inferiority or superiority to China. Its not a national defence thing. It's not the US vs China. It's Apple. Apple US, Apple China, same thing, still Apple. Apple makes a factory, that factory has certain economics based on its inputs (labor, materials) and outputs (iphones). Nowhere does China come into play. We live in a globalized world, it is run by large rich companies, not governments.
- Archelaos 3y agoI don't see that I am missing the point. My point was that without further context the numbers can be interpreted either way. You were at least trying to providing a context. So I see no contradiction here. (NB: "Chinas" was the subject of the parent's remark.)
