This is a bit silly. With how NATO works, they'd be inviting WWIII and do serious damage to ties with China that they are critically dependent on, and there's a good chance the alliance would implode if they were that much more aggressive since many of the countries in it don't want war, they just want to cower behind whoever has the biggest gun, to say nothing of the fact that the US government is already unpopular and would probably be forced to start conscripting soldiers, which would produce massive backlash. There are a lot of reasons for the US to stick to proxy wars for as long as it can manage.
