1. That’s an American source 2. The deadline is implicit based on demographic/economic calculations, not set by China

On a personal note, I don’t see how China is even capable of invading Taiwan. If they do try, it’s probably gonna be a Ukraine style war of attrition with Taiwan backed by the US such that China loses a huge amount of power while the US only gets more powerful

UAVs trash the invasion force. At sea, on the beaches.
