They both need to fight. If not then india is gonna be the most dangerous.
The prudent man hides [his] knowledge,
but a fool’s heart loudly reveals its own folly.
A fool lies and is caught. He then lies again to cover his first misdeed.

It is very fortunate that the Chinese were not able to exploit this gap in a war with the United States. This might be embarrassing but it’s a huge break for the US. Now they can work on correcting this weakness while no one died from it.
I see China is practising The Art of War
To know your enemy well keep them close.
