You are sorta dodging the point. Yes, the option is there for him to play with Japanese players. But he can also count on not being able to talk to many players unless he is fairly fluent in Japanese. QUITE A BIT, would change for him.

The reason people are upset is because they are losing something and now have to pick what to keep. No way around that. It's something they've had and they aren't in a great mood about losing it.
