I don't mind NA/EU sharing servers but it is not rocket science to see the difference in population between Japan and the rest of the world.
Even still, capacity should take priority. You can't even play on Japanese servers anymore because they're filling up with players who can't play their characters on NA/EU. Once those new ones are on they'll just fill up like the JP servers and you fall back to the same issue we're having now: every server has a max capacity of 5000 players and there are WAY more than 5000 players trying to get on each server at the same time.
