Thr nuclear option is kicking china out of swift. How likely will it happen?

After that, it will be us military blocking chinese vessels on key routes.
You mean kicking out the world's largest producer and the largest trading nation on the planet? Good luck to them.

It may be worse. I've heard in smoking room conversation, that entire unionpay ecosystem is quite transparent (aka vulnerable) in its internals, as some of key decisions were done in a far more optimistic era with best intentions.

This is the main reason why US sanctions are quite good at targeting unexposed entities deep within. Outflow of wealthy chinese nationals doesn't help either.

So, after getting bodied by China’s rapid combo blows of rare earths, port fees, and secondary sanctions. America’s response is…name calling and (bad) memes? This is turning out to be less a clash of titans and more a hoodrat getting curbstomped after picking on the real wrong guy to start shit with.
