The example debates here are all a disagreement on (future) reality. Many of the debates in our world are about policy. In such debates, difference in values also lead to different conclusion. I wonder how to extend the proposed system to such debates

Several added boxes

China makes most of our stuff including chips

We buy most of our stuff from China including chips

China has billion people

We have 360 million

Chinas middle class is rising as ours is declining

Soon China will just need to sell to the rest of the world and themselves

China also produces and refines most of the worlds raw materials

We need raw materials like iron and rare earth elements

China has a military and operational control of the Taiwan area

Our military leaders have noted under no scenario could our military win in a limited conflict with China

An all out war would not be acceptable to either side

Tianmin Square, Hong Kong and Vietnam provide examples of use and limits of power
