What I am not clear on is how much this ban will actually affect Chinese entities in these fields? My guess is not much because there are plenty of other sources of investment but I am open to counter arguments. But if I am right, what did US expect to gain from this ban other than further souring relations?

Vast majority of Chinese capital investment is domestic. This ban hurts US citizens the most by not allowing them to invest in Chinese upstarts.

Considering that the US wants Taiwan to be the second Ukraine, I'm not really surprised that some Taiwanese would emulate Ukraine Neo-Nazis by worshiping fascism. This is similar to building a memorial for Hitler Youth and such whitewash of Japanese war crimes is not tolerated by clear-eyed Taiwanese.

I hope such policy in China will enhance China's lead in cutting edge scientific research.

What’s the point of even being a sovereign country if you easily surrender to the empire’s bullying?

Corruption, nepotism, and cronyism. That is a stronger motivation for those politicians than the nation. Imran Khan was in their way, so they made the deal with the devil to put him away. The devil will betray them in due time. Maybe through scandals, colour revolution attempt, or some other destructive nonsense. When that day comes, they might want Imran Khan again to to help put the country back together.

I speculate this based on my observation of how Lula and Anwar Ibrahim returned to power from prison.

Protecting U. S. investors from the consequences of future U. S. stupidity, probably! At some point when the U. S. blatantly steals Chinese assets, they‘ll want limited exposure to retaliation.

Rumour I heard was it will ban US investment into companies where the majority business is to do with things like quantum computing or AI, note the word majority. If true then this would be a make job program for accountents to see how creatively they can structure Chinese companies to stay under the limit.

"Why yes this potato farming business does have a minor branch doing quantum computing, purely for potato and potato related research you understand."

Indeed, the company is hoping to develop potatoes that can be deep fried and boiled for mash potato simultaneously, a ground breaking R&D for restaurants and home cooking all over the world.
