The average citizen probably isnt informed enough to know how critical taiwanese manufacturing is to nearly all Western electronics, but I doubt that level of strategic importance is lost to the politicians who will be making the decision.
I see what you’re saying, but it is really easy to drum up support, especially with how effective the media has become at manipulating public opinion. I’ve seen the US go to war over much less in my life.
For the US, at least, I don’t think the people care enough about Taiwan to support going to war.

True, Iraq and Afghanistan became deeply unpopular. I guess they could drum up enough anti-China sentiment for a few years.
