That said, militarily, it might be nigh impossible to stop China from taking Taiwan if they choose to pursue it.
D-Day was bloody and the time of D-Day, the United States, United Kingdom, and Canada collectively had a numbers advantage on Nazi Germany and the Germans were exhausted. Great Britain is pretty close to France and there is a wide variety. An invasion of Taiwan would likely require more men than D-Day. The boats have farther to travel, and unlike Nazi-occupied France, the local civilians are not going to treat landing troops as liberators.
Ukraine has shown that an underdog can prevail against a lumbering giant impaired by corruption and incompetence and Russia was right next door to Ukraine. Pretty much all the institutional problems Russia has, the CCP has. For decades top level military officials were promoted for their loyalty to the Dear Leader instead of for their merit and corruption bleeds the military's effectiveness on every level. Russia just faced a weird coup-like event and it just so happens that China is a veritable powder keg of domestic discontent and economic turmoil waiting for a match to light it. On top of all that, the PLA has not deployed their military outside their own borders in a meaningful way since their failed invasion of Vietnam while the Russian military (or parts of it) had some experienced veterans seasoned in foreign conflict.
Taiwan has a rugged coastline, and there is only a relatively small number of beaches where troops can be landed giving Taiwan a good bottleneck. Only about four out of twelve months is the weather conducive to a mass amphibious landing of Taiwan.
That said, I agree that economic actions are preferable. I believe if the CCP can be stalled long enough, they will internally collapse in about ten years. I don't think they are going collapse hard to enough to break the CCP forever (Scalenex stares off into the distance in a wistful dreamlike state) but I think they will collapse hard enough to make then unable to launch a major offensive.
The PLA's best time to invade Taiwan is RIGHT NOW because the United States and it's allies are funneling resources and attention to Taiwan. But the PLA is not ready right now. Among other problems, they don't have enough landing ships unless they confiscate civilian vessels which opens up a new can of worms.
Also, China has the second largest military budget in the world behind only the United States but they spend more money on their police efforts than their military. Because...
On the Chinese Internet, Prigozhin's little rebellion broke one-day search records. Before the censorship apparatus figured got their marching orders, many Chinese expressed admiration for Prigozhin's and were impressed that a chef was able to challenge someone as seemingly invulnerable as Vladimir Putin.
The CCP top officials are probably soiling their pants right now. An Xi Jinping is going to extra paranoid and looking inward, watching his lieutenants for the slightest hint of betrayal right now. Rather than looking outward at Taiwan.
. If we all went to compete at the Olympics you'd be the one who sets out with the endeavor to win the Bronze medal, because the gold is too gimmicky and played out. 
... leave bronze for those mentally-damaged people who somehow like the woke stuff
