So why didn’t the Bank of Japan print more money? If they didn’t have an incentive one way or another I would expect them to cave to the political pressure, so what was the counter-incentive? Did they genuinely disagree and think that printing money was a bad idea? Were they reluctant to change policies because then they would look stupid?
Also I propose the “I can’t do anything because doing something would be arrogant” attitude be termed modesty-paralysis.
