Being accustomed to bad infrastructure means they instinctually wouldn’t use good infrastructure if it’s right in front of them? That’s an interesting assumption to make of people who come from lesser means.

Yes, I can see that being a problem. But it comes back to Japanese infrastructure not having adequate capacity so I’m glad they’re doing the responsible thing by shutting it down. Hopefully they can come up with a solution so that Japanese businesses that rely on a spike in volume during this festival don’t get hit too hard.
