That's not really helpful when the vast majority still manufacture in China, and at best 'assemble' somewhere else.

It's an outdated argument.
There's both quality and crappy stuff coming from China.

I made no comment about the quality of Chinese goods, just their ubiquity.

You still directly support the Chinese regime though.

A Western company still has a different level of oversight & quality assurance than a Chinese company.
