Honest question: What population do you find excessive and too much for the Earth to be able to sustain it?. By the way, Japan is not throwing people to the sea, just not replacing the ones that pass away, quite a big difference IMHO.

Morally, yes there's a huge difference. In terms of long-term economic, technological, and societal impact? Not really.
