A corps sized formation would change the defensive equasion for Taiwan. it might not be enough to take the Island, but its enough to take part of it. The RoCA is woefully under equipped with modern weapons. Thier Brave Tiger tank is a rebuilt M-48/M-60 Patton clone.
I know China has civillian WiG viehicles, has developed a surfing IFV and is working on an improved attack helo capability, but all are still in small numbers. I wont claim to be a PLA watcher by any means. But I am kinda keeping an eye on China's amphib technology. and the peaces are there but not the numbers.
However if China starts practcing OTH ampib ops it could signal oprational testing of a new doctrine prior to investment in force construction.
