Because India is just as nationalistic and xenophobic as China is at
this time, and a military attack on Bhutan's Doklam region would
trigger full-scale war between China and India, reviving their war
from the 1960s. Such a war would spread to Pakistan, and bring Russia
or the US in on the side of India, and China isn't ready for that.
