Judging from the quality of Chinese made products that I have seen, I would bet that the building would fall over during the first heavy rainfall they
get there ...

That's not actually true. People have been using modular building methods for decades. There are hotels all over the world made from stacked shipping
containers.
The modular building method is extremely fast and extremely stable. This took days to build, but those modules took longer. If they were timing from
the first construction of the first module rather than just from the construction of the combined modules then we'd probably be looking at a few
months of construction time.
All we're seeing here is the development of new construction methods, creating smaller blocks on the ground and then raising them into place. It
actually makes sense, and considering kids have been building with LEGO bricks for so long it's actually really surprising that it's taken so long
to start using this construction method in the construction industry.
