that's the point, offensive weapons always advance faster than defensive ones so a single $10 billion ship is a huge liability. they're primarily for bullying countries that have no way to fight back. a peer or near peer is going to be able to saturate AA/AD (using hypersonics and/or modern ASBMs) and kill the carrier for a fraction of its cost.
I suspect China is building them primarily as a symbol of prestige to show that they're part of the Big Boys Club rather than any practical purpose.

They only parade warships and tanks and warplanes around because if they didn't you'd know what they really have, which is satellite-based weapons of unimaginable destruction. They're already testing them on places like Hawaii. All the rest is just window dressing for the terminally gullible.

They don't want wars to end, they want to prolong them as long as possible. Wars create trillions of dollars in profits, and allow them to empty out the tax coffers worldwide.
