They had a selfish reason for demanding servers, we have a legitimate one.

Anyway, I don't see why regional and international servers can't coexist. Why can't we have both.
I use to have to live in Japan a few months a year for work. I played FFXI in US and Japan and I never noticed the latency difference to be that much if any at all. Mobs still show on pop just a fast as when I was in Japan my macro lag was same in both area etc... So from experience I would have to say Japan having better latency (if they do at all) is not that big a deal. People seems to just assume because the server are there that was the case, but after playing there I didn't notice a difference.
