This is a classic case of "open misanthropy".

People can love the Japanese for their unique characteristics and they can love the Japanese for the things they appropriated from other cultures. Just like the British.

Fact is though, in many ways, Japanese culture is a lot more caring, considerate and kind than the British.

>I doubt that purely wordless, symbolic system was truly the ultimate pinnacle of operational clarity.

Agreed, but only because Brits aren't really good at designing things for longevity, whereas the Japanese are great at it.
