No, you are taking "great" out of context.
It is great that you can safely take a nap in a public space without fear of being robbed or worse (as one would have to fear outside Japan), without having police called on you, and with general public acceptance of such action.
Nobody will think you're a bum or a mad or look at you funny. Try that somewhere else and let's see what happens!
Japanese corporate culture is terrible and that is sad. I don't have an answer to that.
They're cultures that you can see "see people at McDonalds early in the morning after a night out" all the time, without having to go there directly from working late...
