Why were the Chinese unable to use arquebuses and pikes on a large scale like Europeans, Turks and Japs? Why were they not militarily competitive with these places by the 17-18th century? Why were they still using matchlocks into the 19th century?

Probably bait but whatever. There was no need to. Europeans and Turks were surrounded by states of parity and has incentive to constantly improve their arms while the Chinese were surrounded by completely asymmetrical 'barbarians' and by the time they were 'surrounded' by states that posed proper threat the narcissistic culture and dysfunctional bureaucracy had dug in too much

success: At least 90% of the people are above poverty line.

That's a feature of human nature though.

Science advances at the rate of the smartest people in the entire society, politics advances at the rate of the lowest common denominator.
