Man, China as a country is certainly poised at this point to really pull some wild political optics with this move. Their manufacturing quality has been noticeably improving in recent years and their tech industry has a huge opportunity to show up western firms by undercutting the shit out of them in consumer NAND and DRAM. It would be wise of them to take QA extra seriously over the next couple of years to make themselves the "heroes" of the people by delivering better quality and dramatically lower prices than those bloated western companies. Hell, I'm even possibly in the market for it soon if the price is right. I have a feeling western corpos will continue snatching defeat from the jaws of victory and not notice that some of these Chinese corporations already quietly got their shit together a while back and probably won't shoot themselves in the foot this time. This could be the optical turning point for China as an economic power.

Hopefully the Chinese people can continue making progress in fighting the CCP bourgeois for better labor rights, especially with western corporations losing access to terrible enforcement of already inadequate CCP labor laws. The Chinese workers will start having a hell of a lot better bargaining position with this development and the ACFTU/CCP can get fucked.

Might be a stupid question but why not displayport instead?

Bigger power delivery spec. The hope is that it should be possible to drive a huge display from a single cable for data and power

it sounds stupid to force through the computer a meaningful amount of energy that is only intended for a peripheral

By your logic type PD spec is stupid because it is also used in PC. The use cases extend beyond PC. Think video wall system where cabling can be messy and pretty much everyone got their own standard. This would allow a single daisy chain and simpler cabling.
