I didn't read the parent's comment as you did. To me it looked like someone just trying to get a handle on the relative amounts and variability. They provided some relevant data and appeared open-minded. Your response to that adde

Cannot answer your historical question, but maybe I noticed something relevant today. I went out this morning with a couple of dozen Japanese to do a dragon dance (Ryūjin) around the local village. Exactly like this one[1] from 8 years ago.
