What worries me is the pattern that's emerging here. The Italo-Turkish War was a testbed for WW1 technology, The Spanish Civil War was a testbed for WW2 technology, are we getting WW3 after this? :/

I could certainly see this spreading into a wider conflict. But if we're lucky, maybe not.

Russia's busy, though, so while they want to interfere, I don't think they want another front. I'm not really worried about North Korea at the moment, I think they've kinda settled down a bit.

China with Taiwan is always a worry, but I think they're still looking a bit longer term at the moment.

If oil and fertilizer shortages get serious, I could see more countries getting involved. And I think, hate to say it, Israel has a real chance for enhancing things and more shit starting, and frankly, same with Trump.

So I'm moderately worried, personally.

This is good to hear. Japan really has to step up its defense. China and North Korea are just next door. I'm no conservative, but I do appreciate Takaichi's hawkish stance toward China. The problem is she's getting in bed with the US even more, and she is fully aware of the kind of dotard Trump is.
