“Yet China seems to be dead serious on enacting that geopolitical idea to some extent, per their Belt and Road Initiative.”

I doubt they are doing so in pursuit of Mackinder’s obsolete ideas. They are just rebuilding a new version of the Silk Road. They are also trying (not quite successfully) to gain control of the South China Sea and Indian ocean, which don’t play any large part in Mackinder’s theory, but are important in more modern geopolitical theories.
