I don't think anyone expected it would mean a price drop. I certainly never intended to suggest it. It seemed obvious to me that it meant that ex-Europe prices would become more than ex-Japan, and together with the information that ex-Europe prices would be going up, the obvious implication is that ex-Japan prices would either remain the same or go up but not by as much.
