If you think about how difficult invading Ukraine has been for Russia, add in 100 miles of water for the most inexperienced navy in the world and it would likely be a blood bath.
I've always wondered if sinking a super carrier (group?) off your coastline is a great idea. They all carry a massive nuclear reactor onboard, I'm assuming the US has some pretty good technologies to mitigate these new Chinese carrier destroyer missiles, but all in all it seems like a disaster for everyone, especially the Chinese.
It doesn't make much sense to compare Ukraine and Taiwan. Those are very different wars, with Taiwan / US having also huge challenges.

There are 9 sunken nuclear submarines lying on the sea floor. I have doubts about this being a big deterrent. The carrier group is also unlikely to be close to the coastline.
