Quantity has a quality of it's own. The sheer quantity of massive country agglomeration effects is what makes PRC system not replicable, i.e. you need country with 800 million people to sustain 500m "modern" workforce that can optimize for every industrial cluster that becomes mutually reinforcing. This not something smaller countries (i.e not PRC or India) can invest of enslave their way into. Current PRC is a model predicated off cultivating and integrating 800 million people into an all domain supercluster, that population scale is an initial investment gate.
