If the western community, especially NA, don't tone back their toxicity, start being more constructive in their feedback and stop posting the same just downright petty at this point threads over and over that have appeared lately, SE may shut the door on listening completely. And other developers will use it as an example of why not to bother.

On another note; I hope the team in Japan takes reasonable steps to look after themselves, and plans how to manage a healthy work/life balance. 2016 was a horror year of losing young over worked talent in that country, and a big company like SE could use their position to positively address that issue.
