Where are all the commenters about how China can't innovate and they can only steal technology now...

Reverse that, why don't other countries / companies try and steal their talent and IP? Is everyone resigned to think that China are undefeatable on the technology/manufacturing of these batteries?

It used to be the case that the USA was very successfull in making the talent (from everywhere, not just China) "steal" itself to the USA.

I have heard that the USA has abandoned that strategy recently, but I think it is too early to see any impact.

I would criticize the USA's strategies in this regard but it seems that might put me in the crosshairs of their strategies...

I fear caution won't make one safe from stupidity anyway. They'll find a post about transgenic mice or something and then it's goodbye Archibald Buttle. :/
