A) no idea mate, gotta ask your Intel agency how they came to that conclusion. I told you I don't use Chinese sources to avoid antagonising you guys. Had been using Indian info all along. Nitin Gokhale and Ruser is actually quite neutral sources, not 100% reliable but neutral. Coupled with internal Chinese news, we get a clear picture. Not the usual Indian bullshit for Modibot consumption.
B) if you had been following this conflict, before India trespassed and do camping on the LAC, China actually said disengagement is complete and did not do any protest.
C) how many heights are there on a ridge? Many many, the main strategic heights were highlighted on the map, we occupied some, you occupied some, which conveniently lies on the LAC, but we still consider it trespassing. So let's see how it goes, not much territorial loss as compared to 1000sqkm but I think what will. Happen is the buffer zone will. Be created ala Galwan. That's what China wants. Cheap maintenance and no wars. With a proper agreement signed, buffer zone will extend into India with LAC which approximates our claim line will be created no more rats running around. Lol
Chinese war philosophy is totally different from India, we don't aim for heights we aim for access control, meaning passes into a plain etc. Peaks and heights are hard to man, and the logistics is costly. Look at how your villagers are chugging water up 5000m,how long can you last doing that. Look at the facilities we have, I am being neutral now, it's proper and insulated, heated, with food and sanitation, that will boost morale, wars are won not just by soldiers, its also logistics. That's one thing you guys can never win, LOGISTICS. We friggin deliver packed food prepared in a base with drones. Can you do that?
