It kind of is. You try to leave, the police stops you. You go to court, the court decides against you. What's not "lawful" about that (aside from the very unjust nature of China's laws)

For it to be true there would have to be evidence that it's default disallowed. Or that most people can't get passports at all, no matter what.
No country locks of passports 100%. And, look, you asked for a source, the hrw article provides a source.
Every country has laws about who can get passports. In countries without proper rule of law this is often arbitrary. Does that mean all those countries have made emigration illegal?
