Btw, what's going on your mind when you say China can absorb the hit? If the western world, Japan, pacific rim countries, India stops buying and puts sanctions, how many years can China absorb the shock. Won't the oridinary Chinese hunt CPC with pitchforks?
I understand your admiration for Sunderji and deterrance, however I think it's a bit over-rated. It might have worked during the cold war, and to an extent even now, but it won't last forever. This is a 70s ideology that needs to be replaced to suit todays' realities. If the US wants to initiate a nuclear war, I don't think any country has the means to stop it. Deterrance fails then.
