Apparently China is "abusing" RISC-V! I simply don't understand the mentality. :/

I guess they think of RISC-V as a security threat because

they can't control it
they can't annex it to exclusively make money from it and
because it blows the bloody doors off the protocols they do control to make money.

In other words : they perceive open source as anti-capitalist.

It was a visionary move to decamp RISC-V to Switzerland, I'd say.
