country A that has the best tech, has a stable political climate, does not push too much, has a good price, or country B, who has inferior tech, a "maximum pressure" president and asks too much.

The identity of country A and country B in all of the attributes you mention has fluctuated over the years, and through different contexts.

correct, and that is why I think stable is an important feature.

Stable how? I can see mainland China being stable through its authoritarian government for the moment but the Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Uighur situations at the moment don't exactly scream "long term stability" to me.
