You're thinking as a modern man. The public in Japan would have heard nothing about a show of force done in the middle of nowhere. Heck, for all the public was concerned, the naval war had been going great.

The public does not decide what to do on an ongoing war specially during the imperial Japanese rule or any modern war with an organized army. The Americans just have a habit of destroying city with non combatants during world war 2, they've done it in Europe and Asia.
