Make no mistake. NoKo is red line for China. Doing what you suggest would bring a war that you are so cautious to avoid.
That's why they have to do it before China gets stronger. But that's the problem, all these countries will want to avoid war as much as possible. They would rather wait till China becomes really strong and become the aggressor than take care of the problem before it becomes a real problem. Same thing with WW2 in Europe.
