>Chinese PLA continues to conduct exercises involving the transfer of troops and military equipment over long distances using both ferries and civilian Ro-Ro vessels.

Tactical advantages? It's pretty normal for expiditiary forces to have a fleet of civilian cargo vessels they can use on hand.
All logistics is warfare. All warfare is logistics.

Having a seafaring traffic jam akin to Russia's logistics clusterfuck near the beginning of the 2022 part of the Russian invasion.

There is large fleet of such ships with very high capacity. Comparing to dedicated build military landing ships. You can move MUCH with civilians ships.

Because more troops and equipment can fit inside them, and they're self-sustaining during peace time.

USN uses ro-ro ships and container vessels to transport tons of machinery from America to the ME/Yurop/Japan.

They just guard them with a small fleet + lurking sub instead of letting them sail willynilly in the open ocean.
