If I were the Russians or the Chinese, I would be releasing these balloons dozens at a time every single day into the western northern jet stream just for the fun of it.

The missiles we use to shoot down these balloons cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Are they as slow and difficult to replace as those we have sent to Ukraine? Do the Chinese really supply the propellant for new missiles and rockets? Are we really paying for expensive target practice with difficult to replace materiel? Shoot down enough balloons and we will not have enough weapons to fight the enemy Air Force during the war that the best and the brightest are sundowning us into.
