    Yes, and I support China stealing whatever it deems productive it steal in terms of IP from the US. The point is that there’s a trope about China only being able to make knock-offs and only having the success it has from stealing which is ultimately a chauvinist caricature.

      It’s a jingoistic caricature. I’m not informed enough to know the difference what the difference between standards are for products of the two countries.

      I do agree there is a common sentiment that Chinese products are inferior to their American counterparts. If China or the USA want to steal product specs from each other to make better products that we end up buying, cool. I’d rather buy better products and I’m sure you would too.
