Not convinced India is particularly US aligned, and while Pakistan is relations have deteriorated in the past, the us has backed Pakistan more than India.

Maybe this time the us would back India as part of a proxy war.

The thing is, the US doesn't want partners; it wants allies. And that's too big of a commitment for India to make. This is basically the central tension that keeps US-India relations from moving too fast.

US doesn’t want allies now. It wasn’t vassal states and transaction deals.
