Not that it makes your point of view any less valid, but I've not heard any complaints from a Japanese on this. My general experience is that, if you tell them in advance what needs to be done, they will generally accept it. And I'm guessing that their assumption is that the majority of interest in the Japanese breakfast will come from their Japanese patrons.
