Bingo. NK starts taking potshots at USN ships, the US warns them to back off, China warns the US to back off, Russia backs China...this scenario gets out of hand quickly. What happens when someone pushes the big red button and actually hits a USN or North Korean asset?

I don't know how you arrived at that scenario from my conjecture, but carry on. It seems to give you enjoyment.

China has tried to promote more of its interests in NK, but, seemingly, the guys China likes keep getting purged out.

If true, then most likely because fat boy is like the CCP; he wants full and unconditional control.
