I'm asking you to explain how it could be otherwise. Is BOJ Governor
Haruhiko Kuroda just stupid and making a mistake? How would you have
handled the situation, if you were him?
I'm just f!#!ing with you. I know you have no idea.

I thought you might have been leading me into a trap to spring something on me that showed my horrible understanding of global economy. Good play.

I was betting you didn't know what you were talking about, but since
I'm nice gave you the perfect set-up to demonstrate you did know something.

It's not nearly as simple as that. A currency that's too strong, while a boon to that country's tourists going abroad, means that a country's exports are too expensive for the customers it wants to ship to. A country in that position will take steps to deliberately weaken it's currency to correct that.
