The most effective wall you can build is a concrete block wall/insulated air gap/concrete block wall. It seems like overkill but this is the type of construction that cinemas have between individual theaters. The only way to get more isolation (aka the "good, thick wall") is to decouple the walls, and at that point you're at separate structures anyway which adds the advantages of fire breaks and not having to have a legal entity governing common components like that roof.

I have this dream that one day UA AF happens to have a few surprise F-22s on hand for revealing after the fact via intercepting most of the Russian strategic bomber fleet the next time they do a temper tantrum missile strike.

I'll add some negativity to restore balance.

These local ruinations are just a temporary blip versus China's hard demographic facts like how over the last 10 years their birth rate has crashed harder than the birth rate of the Jews during the Holocaust.

I've seen enough anime to know that turning on the experimental fusion reactor in some Japanese prefecture is an event that doesn't end well.

It's more that they've been in a long demographic decline since the USSR broke up, particularly among ethnic Russians. Of course 300K dead soldiers plus all the people who fled the country altogether sure as heck isn't helping them either.
