I think there’s trust issues for how people treat public property and a general abusive attitude towards restaurant workers in America which would make it less likely to work.

For instance, they had a photo shoot corner where you could sit on the couch with the Christmas lights, but they also had a Walkman and cassette tapes scattered on the coffee table for effect. Japanese people would treat that area with respect and simply take a pic on the couch, but in America, how long would it be before those get stolen by some punk? Or someone tried to eat or put their shoes all over the couch and damage it?

Y’all can’t even treat movie theater chairs with respect.
