Necessary or not, I'm not going to go about wishing and hoping for it.

This is not what I'm suggesting. If you're being accurate and fair, there would be no reason to compromise in the first place, I'm simply suggesting people be aware of how these criticisms are co-opted, especially those that are neither accurate nor fair. And not to shake hands with anti-Chinese sentiments masking as anti-Chinese government sentiments. Not that I think it's a particular problem in this thread.
