What would the issue be, in the long term? I'm struggling to see a downside to more manufacturing capacity


If you want to realistically compete in a market with state-backed firms, you need state backing. Aerospace is a prime example.


Oh, maybe we're mixing terms here. OP was proposing CXMT as a "solution" to the problem of these companies engaging in price fixing. Now you're saying there needs to be a "solution" to the problem of these companies no longer being able to "compete" (engage in price fixing), because CXMT exists.

The latter is not a problem I or almost anybody outside those companies care to fix. It's not the public's job to bail out a company because they forced states to intervene to break up their monopoly after taking the highest profits in the industry's history.
