All of those developments you talk about are relatively recent meaning the last 10 years or so.

If they persist, I can see a potential policy change.

The US supports Taiwan being in the WHO and other like minded organizations. 10 years ago that would be unthinkable.

Its shifted over time.

I think Taiwan's shift to independence will have to be gradual. Bit by bit...and that is happening now.

And it correlates exactly with the arrival of full democracy and free speech.

Before that people were arrested exiled and even killed for saying Taiwan should be independent.
