The whole idea is idiotic. One has to assume from the logic of this man is saying that the infant's own father is somehow unfit to succeede the Crown Prince, because he hasn't been educated as a Crown Prince! --Previous Message--

: Actually, they are resolving nothing by
: having Crown Prince Naruhito adopting his
: nephew, who is already in line of
: succession. That would not increase the
: numbers of Princes in line of succession.
:
: And I don't understand the idea anyway. The
: man who was interviewed saw it as a problem
: that it could take so many years for Prince
: Hisahito to become Crown Prince. But right
: now he is only an infant. 20 years from now,
: Emperor Naruhito will be 66 years old and
: his brother 60. If Naruhito has no son of
: his own, everyone will know that Hisahito is
: a future Emperor, so they can start
: educating him for that role even though he
: is not formally the Crown Prince.
