Oh, I forgot the other thing. Decisions on admitting states to the UN have to go through the UN Security Council, where it is subject to a veto by.... drum roll... China! So it wouldn't even matter if every other country in the world considered Taiwan a separate country, it can't join the UN. Thus, that's a false metric.
