SpaceX does do test firings of a full rocket stack. However, the hold down clamps are sufficient to keep the rocket in place.

Solid rocket motors are tested horizontal. Boosters with liquid fuel and oxydizer need to be vertical to keep the liquid from the tanks flowing properly.

Many also work in our industrial research labs where they learn our methods and latest discoveries.

And PLENTY of China-born people working in corporate America, including very sensitive positions (yes, many are citizens now, but does anyone think that affects their loyalties?).
