@Dalzell60 might not be qualified to comment on the feelings or aspirations of Taiwanese independence activists such as yourself, but he is more than qualified to assess the security situation from the perspective of countries in the region...

Not even Japan wants it because any Chinese op - successful or not - will massively complicate Japan's security environment and damage Japan's economy. Just like with the frozen conflict in Korea, Japan gets everything it needs from the status quo.
