<<They could have, but it would have been an act of war against the UK, which was an ally of the US>>

china took on us and uk in korea during same time, so what, as in what of it?

china took on usa again in vietnam (read the pentagon papers since your mind is not disposed to hearing history from me), again, so what?

in any case taking hk by taking kowloon and/or cutting off water permanently to hk would have been legally permitted under any laws to do with lease cancellation or cessation of supplier relationship - ipso, hk was deliberately allowed to be on own

if you do not admit that, merely shows ignorance to a higher degree than i originally suspected
