..the difference is SpaceX debris was caused by a stage two failure on Falcon 9. The Chinese on the other hand apparently didn't care where their debris fell. It circled the globe for days with no predictable impact point. Most missions plan the splash down point to the precise grid coordinate somewhere is the ocean far from commercial air and maritime traffic.
