I think the WS10 is neither China's wet dream nor a matured product.
Developing a high power engine for China's figther programs has been China's priority target and policy since long time ago.
From previous example, we may see that whenever China determines to do something, they would go full force ahead. They would do anything that might bring success closer. If they need to learn, they do it, they need to buy, they do it, they need to copy, they do it, even if they need to steal, they do it.
This is not wet dream; this is what a determined nation trying to achieve a target at all cost. This kind of attitude is the most important reason hated and in someway admired by China's adversaries.
