It's actually really simple: countries need unification force to keep its elements together and working as a well oiled machine. The Soviet Union once believed in Marxism-Leninism as an unifying force and it worked well for a time. When they gave it up you saw what happened.
China has very strong internal unifying force, created since the days of Shi Huangdi who let's be frank spilled a lot of blood to create this unified identity (the whole if you don't use my writing system or my measuring units we'll cut off your head thing).
Modern India as an unified country is a concept created by British Raj. Once the British and the threat of violence are gone they need to find something new to unify the people and they found religion and its associated caste system. Even so today you still have separatists and maoist guerrilla operating within. If they give up the whole religion thing there will be little unifying force left and you'll have regionalism all over the place.
Uhh Nancy Pelosi?

Sure it may be worthless paper growth, but that’s hardly anything new for America and totally beside the point, stop trying to ruin this once-in-a-lifetime moment for Biden! Jai Bind!

Does TW getting submarines even change the calculus at all in the straits? I think the submarine tech will just get leaked to the China's intelligence agency through espionage and embedded agents.
