Have you ever had a bully almost but not quite hit you, instead hitting something else, but you react as if you were about to be hit and flinch. And then one day you flinch and hit your head on something, but the bully didn’t hit you so they tell you it’s not their fault. Or worse…you flinch and accidentally hit them lightly, and now they have an excuse to really hit you. Yeah…
What is China hoping to achieve with these goofy acts?

To raise the risk level for conducting military operations next to their airspace.
From what I can tell, control (as they perceive it).
Yeah, true, eye of the beholder.
