Pelosi's possible Taiwan visit will accelerate the process of unification with mainland China.
Mainland China and Hong Kong accounts for more than 40% of all export destinations for Taiwan
It's not an understatement to say mainland China controls the economic lifeline of Taiwan

The more moderate consensus in China in regards to unification is to make Taiwan lose their economic edge first

Flat panel display manufacturing was one of the pillar of Taiwanese economy, today Mainland Chinese companies like BOE have taken the lead
From high-end Machine Tool (the mother of all machines)
to robotics and pretty much all important industries for Taiwan, the Mainland are either neck and neck or have surpassed Taiwan
Taiwan's pillar companies survives on Mainland preferential policies

All except one industry, the semiconductor industry, the last economic moat protecting Taiwan
Take that away, or chip away at their market share, then Taiwan will just be known for their Minced Pork rice.

If war happens, then China would seek to have the same landing conditions
Okinawa shares a lot of geological similarities to the island of Taiwan
Having been to Taiwan, I've actually measured the angles of their embankment they are perfectly scalable by PLA tanks

A lot of the West coast of Taiwan facing Mainland China looks like this

Chinese Naval supremacy is a given, air-superiority/ supremacy over Taiwan will be established through mass usage of drones and loiter munitions
