Most of top leadership in China, including Xi Jinping, has painful personal memory from Cultural Revolution era. Mindlessly praising Mao may not please them.

I agree. Bo Xilai wanted a return of the Cultural Revolution and that’s what led to his downfall. It’s ok to be a corrupt official but the moment you start calling for a return of the Mao Era, you become an outcast.
