The Chinese Communist Party is no longer communist in the sense of wanting Soviet planning, a classless society or the entire population dedicating themselves from the bottom of their hearts to murder all sparrows because the General Secretary said so. Yet it still wants mass obedience. The Leninist structure remained and the Party did not relinquish any authority. Its ambition of control is both Chinese and that of a Communist Party. The Party has the ultimate scientific worldview, the Party is China, the Party is the Emperor and the Party is God.

Hong Kong and Macau will be under centralized control and indistinguishable from any other city in a century, and so will Taiwan some time after unification. The Taiwanese may want a local administration for local affairs, an identity that is still Chinese but a subgroup among the Chinese with their own history, and not having to participate in the Party. The Party can let them have this for some decades, but ultimately it's an insult to what it wants to achieve. It needs to assert the superiority of its worldview and its triumph in the struggle for power. It will want the Taiwanese to be Party members, and Taiwan, a province like any other. An autonomous Taiwanese administration would be the last remnant of the Nationalist regime and thus, would have to be demolished. The entire period prior to full centralized control would become a dark period of history in the official public consensus.

It is natural that Taiwanese who want to be Chinese, but not any random Chinese province, to be Chinese but also something else, don't trust the Party in the long run.
