Where can I find the tagging rules on which your commits are based?
According to the OpenStreetMap wiki, the following is a description of how to resolve disputed names:

“In the case where there are multiple local names, then if the government with effective and sustained control of the area has an official source of names or an official stance on a naming dispute, then that name is default.”
osm.wiki/Disputes

Therefore, I tagged it as a Japanese border at changesets #88546641, #88644868 and #93020615 because this area is effectively controlled by Japan.
It doesn't matter if these islands are uninhabited.

I’d like to avoid an edit war, but if you don't revert this, I'll revert it again.

Where is the rule that multinational conflict areas on uninhabited islands do not belong anywhere?

You should revert your changes.

I could not find the rule that uninhabited multinational conflict areas should not be edited. The "Dispute" page of the OpenStreetMap Wiki says "the government with effective and sustained control of the area has an official source of names or an official stance on a naming dispute, then that name is default."
Therefore I added the border of Japan that effectively controls this area.

I have never seen any material that China has effective control this area.
Can you provide me some material that the region is effectively controlled by China?
The link I provided last time contains a photo of a document that China sent to Japan. The document shows that China recognized that Japan has been owned the Senkaku Islands. Although, it may not be readable because it is written in Chinese.
After a quick look, some media say Japan controls this area, as shown in the link below.
