To be honest: I passively learned that Japanese commit Seppuku if they break their knightly code. The kamakazi pilots. And during WWII, they were non stop “I didn’t hear no bell” even after the first nuke.

This biased me into thinking Japanese values life a tidbit less than others.

But I’m pretty sure they just had a rampant conservative choo choo train with no brakes, no exits for the more sane Japanese.

Conservative in the clasical sense of the word here.
