Deploying to the Med. without the ability to control or influence either Gibraltar or the Suez seems like a good way to lose part of your fleet instantly at the beginning of hostilities - much like the fate of German naval squadrons at sea when WWI broke out?
Oh, for sure. I'm just saying that the geography makes power projection both more difficult and potentially more risky. Not impossible, obviously.

Sure. I just think we ought to acknowledge that the geography is challenging for the PRC. The US Navy has two coastlines, joined by a canal we more-or-less control. Our communications in the Pacific run past a lot of islands that are friendly or we control.
