That's why I am asking you how do you define the 'area of contention'? Siliguri? Doklam? Or Doklam plateau? How did we cower away when we are OCCUPYING the plateau? . Does your statement even make sense?
Modi and Xi made a deal, neither wants war, and Modi wants face, China wants territory. So we came to an agreement, road postponement for Modi to save face and withdraw unilaterally while we occupy Doklam in return. Fair deal to me.
'Expedious disengagement' means both parties are not on a war posture, and a 300m buffer zone was established between the two. So how does 150m from the Doka La border meant we retreated from Doklam plateau when the distance from Doka La from the 'recognized border' was more than 5kms away?

No road at the specific point of contention to date and now a withdrawal remaining of troops completed. You cowered away, and all your side games now are immaterial. The dragon was asked to not build and leave... and it shimmed itself away, toothless and its fire extinguished.
