There's always an equally incompetent replacement to be found with minimal effort and replacing them causes little disruption so long as they don't come in trying to cause problems.
But you start replacing the actual workers? That's when workplaces collapse, skillsets are lost and projects have to be abandoned.

But because Japan places little value on programming and software development they get treated like shit. So they wind up either as hobbyists, making videogames, killing themselves or leaving the country.
So Japanese companies wind up having to incrementally develop over time to get a serviceable product. Takes ages.
And when they don't have time for that they have to hire foreigners which they absolutely hate doing because of how much we bill them for something they consider to be low class work.
