Affirmative plan will reduce US military commitment to Japan, probably by removing US troops stationed there. This isn’t needed because they’re not that expensive to maintain (Japan pays a lot of the cost) and the benefits outweigh the cost anyway. But the disadvantages massively outweigh. These include: harm to US national security, destabilizing East Asia, allowing the growth of Chinese hegemony, and encouraging the remilitarization of Japan, which increases the risk of war.
