Well, aside from our comments, i think if most ppl enter a cool cabin w blinds shut, they might slowly adjust to shutting them in a year or 2. Its just a matter of courtesy vs selfishness/"individual egoistic rights".
Indeed ... first there's the uproar and then it will die down and before we know it, it's becomes just another announcement (unless it creates negative perception in the asian markets which may cause CX to drop it).

It is supposed to start 1/9 so we shall see how CX makes the announcement but I wouldn't be surprised if CX will try to appeal to one's sense of duty (for the benefit of the collective) ... that's usually the best way to get someone to do what you want them to do.
Should be interesting to hear they make the announcement in 3 languages.
Maybe they'll add a touch of 'We apologize for inconvenience caused' at the end of the announcement.
