I guess people just generally dont like the sight and feeling of messieness. Its just a cultural norm. You certainly have some too that dont necessarily make practical sense. Thats just the way societies work.

Stuff like burgers, pizza, nuggets and more are generally eaten by hand in the west too. Its things that make your hands too messy that arent. Buts its not a black and white thing. More of a spectrum type deal.

Most Indians Eat With Their Hands
It is a custom in India to eat with your hands, and you will notice the locals will not use any cutlery. Instead, they eat everything with their hands, including foods such as vegetables, sauces, rice, and more. If you want to do as the Indians do, try and eat with your hands while you are there.
It is a fun practice. However, make sure to eat with your right hand rather than your left. As the left hand is meant for activities like cleaning your bottoms or feet.

70% Of The Spices Worldwide Come From India
If there is one thing India is known for, it is producing an incredible number of spices that are shipped throughout the world. Around 70% of the spices in the world come from India.
Of course, you might also have heard of the common spices, which include chili powder, saffron, cumin, and turmeric, but there are also many unique ones that are reflected in the strong flavors of Indian cuisine.

There Is A Temple Of Rats In Rajasthan
There are many unique things about animals in India, including the fact that cows are sacred. However, there is also a temple in Rajasthan that is dedicated to the worship of rats. Thousands of rats are present in this temple, and even pilgrims visit it annually for their religious traditions.

It Has One Of The Highest Populations Of Vegetarians
It is no surprise that India has the highest population of vegetarians in the world. That is because between 15 and 30% of the people in India follow a strictly vegetarian diet.
Of course, vegetarianism in the country is so widespread that even large fast-food chains offer vegetarian menus. Don’t forget to try out vegetarian dishes when you visit India.
Another fun fact about India to note is that they use the term “non-veg” to describe meat dishes. So you will typically find veg and non-veg segments in restaurant menus.

The Japanese live (almost) the longest
Second only to Hong Kong, the life expectancy in Japan is 84, which is 3 years higher than in the United Kingdom.

In Japan there is 1 vending machine for every 24 people
With 5 million vending machines- Japan has the highest density in the world. Batteries, ramen, sake, umbrellas. flowers- you name it and the vending machines probably stock it.

Japanese cuisine has a meat dish made of horse
Basashi is a popular regional Japanese dish, consisting of raw horsemeat slices with ginger and onions.

About 1500 earthquakes strike Japan every year
The frequency of the earthquakes is caused by the location of the country across three tectonic plates called the “Pacific Ring of Fire”.

Japan has a festival dedicated to the phallus
This Shinto festival is known as Kanamara Matsuri (かなまら祭り), which literally translates to the Festival of the Steel Phallus. The festival is celebrated in the city of Kawasaki on the first Sunday in April.
The phallus is the star of the festival, and everything is phallic-shaped in its honour. This includes candy, carved vegetables, and decorations. The highlight is the mikoshi parade, which sees large decorated phalluses paraded in a float shaped like a shrine.
The origin of the festival comes from an old Shinto fable. Legend has it that a demon once hid in the private parts of a goddess and bit off two of her suitors’ penises on their wedding night. A blacksmith then created an iron phallus, which broke the demon’s teeth and caused it to flee.
The shrine is a haven for prostitutes and people suffering from sexually-transmitted diseases to seek prayer and protection. People also pray for fertility, marriage, and businesses.
Today, the festival is an LGBTQ-friendly event as it also promotes inclusiveness. The money raised from the festival is then donated to HIV research.

Sumos compete to make babies cry first
Every April, the 400-year-old Naki Sumo Baby Crying Festival takes place in Sensoji Temple. Parents bring their children to the festival in the hopes of ensuring good health, and sumos will carry them onstage and try to make them cry. Some of them pull a scary face or yell at the babies to try and get them to wail. If all else fails, a scary mask is used to get them going.
While it may be weird to voluntarily make your child cry, it is believed that by getting babies to bawl, they can chase off any demons who are lurking nearby.

Indonesia has the world’s biggest ‘young’ population
Indonesia is the home to 165 million people under the age of 30, compared to only 8% of the Indonesian population being older than 60 years of age. Although a relatively effective family planning programme was implemented in Indonesia in 1964, Indonesia’s population growth is projected to surpass the present population of the United States should nothing change.

Indonesia and Monaco have the exact same flag
A strip of red at the top and a strip of white at the bottom, the Indonesian flag hardly seems the most creative or the most painstakingly thought-out in the world. While Poland’s flag is the reverse flag (white on top and red on the bottom), Indonesia and Monaco have completely identical flags, the only difference being that Indonesia’s flag is slightly wider.

Indonesia still enforces the death penalty - by firing squad
Capital punishment methods in Indonesia have not changed since 1964 and the death penalty is enforced only in very severe cases of drug trafficking or murder. Prisoners often spend a long time in jail before their death sentence penalty is carried out. This occurs after trial court, two appellate courts and then the consideration of clemency by the Indonesian president. Failing all of this, prisoners and their families are given 72-hours’ notice of their pending execution that usually takes place on Nusa Kambangan Island. The prisoner is woken up in the middle of the night, blindfolded and taken to an unknown, remote location where they have the option of standing or sitting, and are executed by a firing squad of armed soldiers.

  • Too many matches in short time -> cant watch all, games feel less important, no time for anticipation and hype building (e.g. like 2 weeks between region finals and tokyo), oversaturation

  • 0 hype/ narratives in dead periods since roster changes arent possible between events so nothing new happens

  • Ascension&regionals get wayy too little attention since its squeezed between vct games

  • laughably long offseason (should be 2-3 months max)

Any more to add folks? This dead waiting period made me think of this
