Don’t you think it’s much easier to leverage an ephemeral resource like coal or oil? What you frame as China acquiring leverage is better framed as a loss of leverage by the titans of oil.

Or maybe we should let the people interested in short term gain draft the policy and complain that China is eating our cake.
