Taiwan presents the same kind of military threat to China as Cuba presented to the US during the Cold War.

It's an excellent staging ground for bombing and the mountainous terrain to the west guards it from effective retaliation.

Even without a big chip factory, it presents an existential threat to the mainland only really matched by Korea or the Philippines.
