I don't think that theory is as true as you believe.

China ceded a whole lot of territory to Russia without too much of a fuss. The whole of Mongolia was part of Qing, and they gave that up. Dittobfor Vladivostok.

China's border disputes with India was created by the British, who just draw a line somewhere without consent. China offered to draw turn the Line of Actual Control into the official border, which means China would get about 30% of the land, but India rejected that offer, so now we are at a perpetual border conflict.

The PRC recognised Mongolia because it is not in a strategic location and because it needed the USSR.

Contrast with the ROC (Taiwan), which officially still includes it as far as I know although it treats it as an independent country in practice.

ROC also used their only veto to block Mongolia from UN recognition in 55.
