I think your cause and effect is backwards. They target defense and FAANG R&D because there's no way you can compete on price when you have to pay your employees $20-30 an hour and you have to do small batches because you can't compete on price.

In China they are pushing automation. When you are charging $500+ a pcbs, you don't care as much.
