awildman, I am afraid I don't agree with you for most of your points.
Regarding CNC, I am not sure about the law but I assume that mobile phone manufactures like Huawei or XiaoMi (or their suppliers) certainly have been using CNC technology for a long time. Maybe someone can check the law to make sure?
Yes, training is certainly important here. This reminds me of the story of Oboe manufacture Josef. When he started making oboe in Japan, he also found that what he made was terrible and then he invited some Germans to his company and to teach him for a long time. After some time, now this brand has gained a reputation in the oboe world. Btw, its clarinets are also worthy a try!

I also don't agree with your theory of culture. You are right, if you want quality, you can get. Again, using phone industry as example, with a price as high as iPhone, you certainly can get quality. Yes, at this moment, most Chinese wind instruments are of low quality, and some of them are just rubbish. However, one major reason for this is that there is a need for super cheap instruments (like the poster here who can try E-flat clarinet for fun by using just $80). The clarinet market is particularly special as we know Buffet at this moment is the domination. Given that companies like Selmer or YAMAHA are still struggling to get a little portion of the professional instrument market, I tend to think these Chinese manufactures are wise enough to not enter the high quality market, at least not for now (maybe this also answers why not American pro line so far). Therefore, this does not necessarily mean that culturally speaking people there don't know what is high quality or people don't want high quality.
With regarding to Buffet's factory, I believe all pro line instruments of Buffet are completely made in France? Do a brief search on this site and you will know how many negative comments here, e.g.,
