That's a two way street. It's not that China has Apple over a barrel. There is a MAD aspect to the relationship. Apple is definitely trying to get out of China as a manufacturing dependency. They'd rather not be banned from the market, but they are preparing for that. Let's rip the band-aid off, I say.

No there isn't. China can destroy Apple [1], Apple can probably only bruise China.
[1] e.g. how would Apple fare if iPhone sales dropped to <10% of current levels for years due to lack manufacturing capacity?
