If they had to lie, they won't release 80,000 cases. It is coming to an end for them. There is very little point in covering anything now.

I wish the U.S. would test more people like South Korea did.

Everyone lies - it's just a question of degrees. This isn't unique to China.

It makes China look better on the global stage if they do a better job containing the virus than democratic nations. I wouldn't call that a little point.

Fundamentally? Maybe nothing. I was responding to the parent comment which claimed there's no real reason for China to under-report numbers.
