I find it much more difficult to find any consistency with the US' TSA from airport to airport (heck even at different security checkpoints in the same airport!)
Yes. Chinese security could be the most consistent government officials in the country. And whoever watching the X Ray machine is really well trained, they could even spot out a small box of match.
