While I agree to some extent, Amazon is sending a message about what content isn't welcome, which doesn't make me a very happy customer.
Silly analogy, but bear with me. If a store claimed to sell all of the pastry from all over the world, but for some reason removed everything from Asia even though they have the room for it, and they'd go out of their way to keep their pastry Asian-free... even anything just Asian-inspired, I'd ask, what's the deal? What do you have against the delicious coconut buns and green tea sponge cakes? What set off the store owner? Being Asian, I might even feel unwelcome in the store even if I was going in for a scone, just because for some reason, everything associated with anything Asian is purposefully eliminated!
It would be one story if the store never stocked any Asian pastry to begin with. But I would be flustered to see if for some reason, all the other sponge cakes are still sitting there but the green tea one is gone! It doesn't make me feel comfortable.
