#3 China won't make Japan's WWII mistake of a naval war as opposed to a land war. Siberia's resources are what it wants.

#5 Khrushchev knew he couldn't trust Mao. Future Russian leaders are likely to reach the same conclusion wrt China. They might pay lip service to some kind of alliance but I think when push comes to shove the Russians would be happy to see China contained.

#6 Demographics are the key. Just as the US has an illegal immigrant problem, so does Russia. If the Chinese can stall 20 more years they'll have enough physical presence in Siberia for the various autonomous regions to simply "vote" one by one to secede from Russia and become part of China. Using Crimea as a precedent, the Chinese troops will move in to protect the rights of their new constituency.
