Of all the world’s governments, China’s probably employs the fewest obfuscatory mechanisms. It doesn’t have multiparty elections. It doesn’t pretend its propaganda outlets are ‘free and independent’. It’s open about censorship. It openly has party cells in its businesses.

obfuscation is sometimes done to cover incompetence and sometimes to cover being a sneaky bastard. the latter is at least theoretically capable of good governance.

That's the thing though - if obfuscation is in place it's only by random chance that anyone competent gets the job - the filters in place are all for bureaucratic in-fighting so you need someone who just happens to be skilled in both. You can get good governance only by accident
