As I see it Chinese neutrality about a conflict between North Korea and either South Korea, Japan, or the United States would be like throwing North Korea to the wolves.

Firing a missile over another country's territory is itself an act of war even if a military response to such may be unwise.

Do you have a reference on China saying they would oppose an American first strike?  Or does that just mean "oppose diplomatically" without military opposition?

Are you a gambler?  Since we can't know how this will play for sure and the results range from a nothing burger to nuclear war, are you willing to bet?
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
