"Americans are famous for moving on,"...
Are we talking about the same Americans who still use 9/11 to excuse all kinds of shit?
Wonder if drag&drop across tabs will be just as broken as in the new taskbar (which still requires a tool to even somewhat work again)...
Obviously, there will be another dozen or so versions of Skyrim on the PS5 too!
Just what the world needed, yet another damn streaming service and one that tries to be even more expensive than the competition.
For most users the difference between American or Chinese backdoors in their hardware means jack shit!
As long as IP lawyers can bill hours they'll happily continue to play whack-a-mole.

You're right on the Japanese and Vietnamese, though the Koreans chose a different route, replacing it with familiar looking characters of their own, that are also syllable-based, but where each character represents a structured combination of the letters/sounds. Basically, if you know the "letters" and the pattern in which to read Korean characters you can already read the words out loud, even without any understanding of the meaning of the words.
Almost forgot about the latter.
It's interesting how the people in Vietnam, Korea, Japan and a few others "imported" Chinese characters and then all chose different paths of modifying/extending/replacing it to suit their own cultural needs.

Firing talents at Sony Online Entertainment by the hundreds probably didn't help.
It's bad enough that the game will be crippled by design thanks to compatibility with the underpowered "next get" train wrecks. No need to add even more ballast to waste resources.
Don't forget that where TPP covers the Pacific there's also TTIP for the Atlantic and because this shit always comes in threes there's TISA as well,
