* If Wenwu never called himself "the Mandarin", why would he think that Killian and Slattery were trying to impersonate him by using the name...let alone be offended by it?

*** Wenwu is pretty much the definition of tough love, as we see from the flashbacks. Sending a bunch of martial artists so his kids could beat them up probably WAS his equivalent of going and having a heart to heart with them, just as raising Shang-Chi right involved a lot of hitting a boy with a stick.

** We actually see the Dragon use similar powers (albeit water) so it's likely a combination of both technique and perhaps the dragon's own chi, likely taught by the dragon itself.

** You're right, but it's ultimately just banter between friends. It strikes Katy as funny and Shang doesn't think of this point in his defence.
Added DiffLines:
** Wenwu doesn't think the assassins have a hope, it's just his version of communication. And being a guy so fixated on martial skill, it's not his "fault" if one of the kids should die along the way, because it just means they weren't strong enough. He's a thousand year old warlord with a selfish, tunnel-visioned desire to have his wife back, which has little to do with her emotions. You can take the man out of the warlord, but you can't take the warlord out of the man, so to speak. Wenwu's settling down wasn't a redemption -- in fact, that comes when he sacrifices himself to save one of the kids. Until that point, he is, quite simply, a bad guy, and thinks like one.

** I feel it'd be hard to not be aware of what the rings are capable of, since Wenwu was using them constantly. And attacking his home indeed made no sense, since, for all they knew, his wife had the rings or could've put them on quickly, and then they'd be screwed. And yet they attacked and got lucky. The only sensible move was to then search for the rings and/or to wait for Wenwu and finish the job.

*** Which, once again brings us to the original question: why not do it himself? Yes, sure, he's a crime lord, it's ok that he delegates, but this is literally the most important task in the world for him, and sending assassins defeats the entire purpose of rebuilding his family.
