Makes sense to me. It's a regional dispute, and Australia is in the region. We should be forging relationships with our neighbours rather than racing halfway around the world to fight wars we don't believe in. If Australia gets involved in a dispute over Taiwan it should be because we truly believe we should be there, not out of some percieved loyalty to the USA.
