Yes, basically the incentive wasn't there for China to make the pen ball, not that it was impossible. The same dynamic is in play with bringing back manufacturing to the US. China is the manufacturing center of the world because it's more cost effective to do so there than in other parts of the world, including setting up supply chains. If that incentive is diminished or gone then other places will emerge. It took 20 years for China to get there basically from scratch. It will take much less to rebuild the capabilities in previous manufacturing hubs.
