TJ, Hong Kong's legal autonomy means as much as did the legal autonomy of Auckland where I live. We recently had the government decide our legal autonomy had had its day and they changed the law. We were taken over by Manukau City and surrounding regions in a bloodless conquest though a very very expensive one.

Hong Kong has autonomy akin to a 3 year old playing in the garden until called inside to have a bath.

Suppose 3 year old Hong Kong decides to secede and become part of Auckland. Do you think your Mummy would allow that? "You naughty boy. You are not to go wandering down the street and into other houses claiming you live there now." Mummy will punish naughty boy who will be sent to his room or hit by Mummy. Or Daddy.
