Agreed, though I doubt that we'd have to make it all the way to nukes in a war against china to risk extinction. Anti-satellite tech, cyberwar, and biochem is the shit that would keep me up at night if I was a worrier. Is it really a certain confidence that a country that has threatened you with nuclear strikes in the past won't use them in all out war - or is it the knowledge that you have an even more destructive and difficult to mitigate option? Haven't they already armed themselves in exactly the sort of manner you described without us ever having lobbed the first bomb in any case?
