I'm just unsure about western motives
I don't think many Europeans would be concerned with their upholding of Buddhist intellectual traditions or things of this nature

It's just overrated.
Westerners' view of Orientalism have kept them to think Japan's amusing.
But now, everyone knows it's boring, worthless beings.

Japan is the right mix of Western and non-Western. Normal enough that most people are comfortable with it, yet weird enough that people find it quirky.
It goes hand in hand.
