I would add that the lack of religion might also contributes to the chabuduo in China. As earning money overwrites everything over make things proper (or with pride). Also as the population is supersized the parazite behaviour can survive much better than in smaller places. This might can be compensated with the pointing system in the world of internet thou.

Anyway I don't think it's an overgeneralization. It is probably not the case for space rocket, but chabuduo also means the taped-together-bikes, the messy meat shop, driving the other side of the road, even if invisible following the promises standards etc. You meat with this every day guaranteed.

If somewhere than in Germany people are following the rules, tidy their environment etc. very very far from China.

Just take one example of the blind guide tiles. In Beijing and Shanghai I've already lost counts how many times it leads to an obstacle like cable post. In Germany, there would be not even one case even in country side...

I appreciate that your comment is based on personal experience but, just as a heads-up, bringing up religion in this context is highly likely to lead to a religious flamewar. Large internet forums simply can't handle discussing it, especially when the root topic is already controversial.

I'm sure you didn't mean to include flamebait in your comment!
