Do you want to land PRC in a *unnecessary* shit creek?

It would be nice as an "importance indicator".
It would not be nice as "inefficiency indicator" because the realistic
goals beyond a (short term) cease fire are "unlikely" IMHO.

So, after "a few weeks" of a two way blows exchange PRC may try to
negotiate a cease fire. I may be cost effective at reasonable risk
*for PRC* IMHO.

BTW "Moral authority" used in this content makes me "vary"
[a diplomatic understatement]
