Would be interesting for the team to point to these charts when explaining things. I happened to "think" JP has a similar player count since, as far as I can see with vague observation, the worlds seem to be as lively as any other. I have no idea where to find such player count charts, I'd be happy if they were somewhat more prominent somewhere on Lodestone or some such -- and I'm sure it would ease up people blindly throwing arguments of this kind around.
