Not intended to be FUD, legitimate concern. I could see how it could come off that way.

A and B) Sure, but you said it yourself: that how much is a significant factor. And Pixels use Samsung modems, not Qualcomm

C) How does the government ban anything? Through legislation and enforcement. That can take a number of different forms

Yeah and Samsung foundry makes Qualcomm chips. So does TSMC, but I'm pretty sure China doesn't control that despite what they may say. At no point while searching online did I see mention of these chips being made in China.
