: 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.
