It's an interesting theory. Doing such a thing (Apple stopping to manufacture in China abruptly) would severely disrupt Apple manufacturing and sales, and probably tank its stock price while they take years to ramp up manufacturing in alternative places in India. Such an event would have big ramifications for the US stock markets and wider economy. Do you think the US government as a whole would accept the risk of a stock market run by ruining a $2.6 trillion market cap company?

Anyway... realistically they'd take some "measures" to make sure this never happens again while staying in the same factories and then probably accelerate their plan to move somewhere else long term.
