If China tried to invade a country, that would give the US an excuse to come to that country's defense, and China does not have the resources to deal with that. Since they can't use hard power, they're using soft power.

Expecting altruism in geopolitics is hopelessly naïve.

I don't expect altruism. Stability and economic prosperity in the region is directly beneficial and profitable to China.

When military action is more beneficial and profitable to China, they will not hesitate to use it.
