While I disagree with many of your points I will concede that there are shockingly few trees on Japanese streets. Little backstreets should be filled with trees. I get that roots can damage the street, but surely there is a way for lovely, shady trees to be on every backstreet.
Trees are messy. If you plant one someone has to take care of it and sweep under it lest there be gasp fallen leaves on the ground. Trees also attract birds and Japanese boomers will literally call up the city office and complain about birds chirping.
I think that might be kind of impossible in Japan, I don’t think there’s enough sunlight that actually reaches into the streets through the buildings to support tree life
Nah it’s not that bad. Even the major urban canyons tend to have arterial roads and avenues that allow for greenery. It’s when you get to the narrow roads that the video dick rides where it starts to get darker because of two and three story houses so close to each other. But even then lots of people have house plants and small bushes, just not trees.

Therefore, better to just have more pavement.
Solution is concrete tree statues, obviously.

It seems to work fine in Philly
But where will the above ground utility poles go?
I’m open to being wrong! More trees everywhere would be preferable
