Why does daytime BKK-NRT misconnect with NRT-LAX and NRT-SFO?

In the summer schedule, the daytime BKK-NRT flight (JL 708 arrives NRT 4:15PM) misses the connection to JL 62 by 10 minutes (JL 62 departs NRT 5:20 PM) and the connection to JL 2 by 5 minutes (JL 2 departs NRT 5:25 PM) because the minimum connection time at NRT is 75 minutes. Why would JL design their schedule like this? This forces you to take the redeye BKK-NRT flight since there are only two BKK-NRT flights a day.
