The tea culture definitely isn't weaker than coffee culture on the worldwide stage, not to a meaningful extent anyway. One important difference is that tea never had the kinds of accessibility problems that coffee had. Specifically, the kinds of accessibility problems that technology solves, because you can get a very good cup of tea with just attentive steeping. With coffee, you more or less need hardware of some kind, so it's a question of how fancy that hardware is. With tea, the base case is either a teabag or loose leaf in a cup/pot.
