unfortunately, your comment consists of many loud hand-waving statements without much substance, so there is no much to discuss.

> The point is when PRC makes >50% of global stuff materially but charges <50%

and could you provide source of >50%?





Unfortunately, your reading comprehension can't parse basic argument, so there's not much to discuss.

For >50%, pick a manufactured finished good or intermediary good like steel, electronics, solar modules, batteries, shipbuilding, xyz components, and chances are PRC produces more than 50% of it by volume/units/tonnage, but not gross/value add. For more broad proxy indicator, look at share of global export TEUs, PRC ships out like ~50% of filled containers, OCED 20%, Row 30%. Emphasis on filled, i.e. take away empty container traffic that flows back to PRC to be filled. Hence western cope is PRC export only ~30% by gross/value (both $$$ figures) that underestimate how many sectors PRC makes more than >50% stuff in while capturing <50% in $$$. And this only considering PRC only exports 20% of GDP, i.e. a lot of manufacturing stays at home.


So, you don't have source, this was expected.

I'm not here to enter your lame sealioning effort for basic facts. This is 2026, you can validate claims trivially. Or you can keep demonstrating illiteracy/innumeracy, which is just as well. Audience can go through comment chain and judge argument merits / cognitive function.

burden of proof is on you, because you made a statement.

If you blindly trust LLMs, it explains well why you are like this..

or very few care about your fantasies spam lol


I've been writing metric dense post before LLMs, and even then I don't entertain sealions who don't do their own minimal research, or demonstrate inability to. LLMs simply available now for previously lazy/cognitively inept readers to validate gist if they want. For those that have trouble with basic comprehension (i.e. can't read gud so only retort is words & numbers are fantasy spam to be handwaved without much substance), LLMs can ELI5. Reciprocally, why care about the incurious who can't be bothered to do better than 5th grader.

I'll skip answering your non-sense this time..
