It's because the sea between Taiwan and China is notoriously chaotic every time of the year EXCEPT in the Spring.
Every other time of the year, the rickety old hand-me-down air carriers and frigates that the Chinese bought from closeout military sales cannot sustain the constant wear and tear of a sea that's frequently pressing on ships with waves as tall as the flagpole on deck.
It just cannot be done any other time of the year. Only in the Spring do the waves calm down enough to let ships anchor in dead water.
If they were to strike, it would be now, and not a moment later.
Taiwan has used the sea between them to protect itself from mainland China for centuries.
I'm not sure it will go down, personally.
Taiwan is to China as Ukraine is to Russia. All the heads of the criminal enterprises hide out in Taiwan and Ukraine, but their foot soldiers do all their deals in China and Russia respectively. The mainland law can't follow them to their hideouts, and their hideouts themselves are in nations that are non-nations. They don't adhere to any NATO/UN statutes, because they are "transitioning into a sovereign nation." This transition is intentionally perpetual. They want to take advantage of all the benefits that forming nations enjoy from international bodies, yet never join the international bodies because then they'd have to pay into the scheme.
Ukraine and Taiwan are equally as crooked, BUT Taiwan cannot be taken over like how Russia has done with Ukraine.
Why?
Well, while Ukraine was behind a lot of drug and medical trade, Taiwan is behind a lot of tech and microchip trade.
We can do without medical, because it's been designed to kill us anyways.
We can't do without tech, even if the tech out of Taiwan was intentionally laced with tracking bugs, keyloggers, and listeners.
The CCP are behind the Taiwan takeover, not China and the Alliance members there. This is different from Ukraine vs Russia.
The Plan, I suspect, was to take over Taiwan economically while subverting the CCP. Xi Jinping, however, seems to have struck some sort of accord and is going against the White Hat plans internationally. He's gonna try to dissolve the CCP (as was planned), but instead of handing off to White Hat elements in Taiwan, he's gonna use the CCP powers, while they still exist, to continue China's current path of a hybrid system of venture capitalism that plays into a communist oligarchy should the venture become to profitable.
Doesn't make Xi a bad guy, but it also doesn't make him a good guy. He's just foolish and overconfident.
He should have stuck to the plan. He's only costing China more lives in order to keep a silly dream alive.
"Why now?"
You might ask.

Great post as always, sleepy dude. This lines up with my own thoughts on the situation in a more insightful way.
