CX post-pandemic has been quite hit or miss for me, more so than before, so I'm not sure I can say they're just like a Mainland carrier. However, in my limited experience "Mainland-carrier level of service" is vastly superior to anything based in North America, so it isn't necessarily a bad thing.

CX still wins on lounges, but that's about it.
Agreed. Depending on the destination, I'm pretty impartial now on whether to fly CX or the "home" destination (e.g. ANA for Japan, EVA for Taiwan, etc).
