It's the same reason most men can't be trusted with high pressure washers.

Or handheld industrial printers.

We have these at work and they have to be kept under lock and key.

There are just so many terrible things printed in so many places so very neatly.

Nah those things have been conversation pieces since at least Kurosawa, but I'm willing to bet japanophilia goes all the way back to the Jesuit era of missionary work there. There's something so romantic to anglos about the idea of an austere and noble warrior race, willing to fall on their swords and everything. It's why they like Rome too, despite the decadence endemic to all of these cultures in their height. Misery loves company I guess.

Vincent van Gogh was really into manga Japanese prints:

A 10x difference in price makes me assume the Amazon one is sold by a company with random letters for a name, and it will arrive only printing in ancient greek and will break on day 3.

Yes, but the sudden appearance of stencil graffiti everywhere would.

Even if you try to be good, you can't help but come up with ideas for how to use it. "We really need to neaten up those signs on the toilets." "We should have our names on the glass of the lab door." "No one will notice swear words if we write them on the tyres of the forklifts."
