Sorry - yes, you're right. I confused two things in my previous post. If I'm not married to the mother then the child has no right to British nationality through me in any case. If I am but they are born outside the UK then they can be UK citizens, but my grandchildren can't necessarily.
But my point still remains that if, as a UK citizen, I adopt a child in HK then they have no right to UK citizenship unless they live in the UK for a while. (And the same is true of anyone I marry.)
But anyway, we're getting a bit off topic here...
