This would mean also postponing 2024 and 2028 Olympics, which is not reasonable.
The current plan (no foreign spectators) seems the most reasonable one. Japan seems to have the pandemic more or less under control, and maybe there will be later a backdoor for foreign spectators who are fully vaccinated and can show a negative PCR test.
For foreign fans, it is of course a pity not to be able to experience the Olympics in a city without pickpockets and street robberies (hello Rio), but given the pandemic, this is something we'll have to live with.
