Ukraine is worthless, like Afghanistan. Taiwan controls the world supply of advanced microprocessors, and is the most valuable strategic prize of all.

If I'm to be bet on this: the USA will put TMSC onto cargo ships (including the staff) and take it back to to the USA long before they get involved in a drawn out shooting war.

And, when that happens, Taiwan is - as you so brutaly pointed out - in the same boat as Ukraine.
