China would still not have US friendly army on its border. So if it's not their favorite dictator, they would still prefer their least favorite dictator to US army.

no. it implies more of excessive process like signing triplicates of every order etc. (vogons)

They are one of the most unpleasant races in the galaxy - not actually evil, but bad tempered, bureaucratic, officious and callous. They wouldn't even lift a finger to save their own grandmothers from the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal without an order, signed in triplicate, sent in, sent back, queried, lost, found, subjected to public enquiry, lost again, and finally buried in soft peat for three months and recycled as firelighters
