My understanding is that some of the benefits China would get from invading Taiwan is the control of Taiwan’s world-leading semiconductor industry. So making it public knowledge that any invading force (i.e. China) would not be able to take over their production capabilities is a small deterrent.
That’s what some analysts say but I really don’t think China cares. They want the land (*it’s strategically important for naval operations) and a unified China.
They want power and influence, I don’t think they care too much (or at all) about their citizens be it divided or united. Unless those citizens add to power or influence, of course
Why the hell would they advertise this is beyond me…

It’s a small deterrent for China but a bigger incentive for other countries to defend Taiwan.

Yeah that’s why they want the land, it’s important strategically for naval operations.
Yup, US gov is fucked up. Oh, wait…
Well, I don’t think any government is different in that regard 😅
Is it not obvious? To discourage Chinese invasion.
China wants Taiwan’s technology and manufacturing. If they destroy it, China will gain nothing.
