Tariffs are pretty different from bans.
Compare to the 1979, 1984, 1995, and 1996 sanctions against Iran, each of which banned investment and trade with Iran in entire economic sectors. Such bans would be politically impossible for the US to direct toward china, since we are dependent on China for certain products--we literally don't have the production capacity to meet our own needs.
