The U.S. military’s reliance on Chinese suppliers.

The diminished US munitions stockpiles due to the Iran war have created a near-term risk. A war against a capable peer competitor like China will consume munitions at greater rates than in this war. Prewar inventories were already insufficient; the levels today will constrain U.S. operations should a future conflict arise.

A conflict with China over Taiwan will be more embarrassing in view of the armament supply chain. It all comes from China.
