"only an inclusive peace process will end the conflict"
So based on this definition shouldn't Japanese religion (or some refrence to it with a fake name since this is the sims) be included in a Japanese pack? How does one want to be inclusive by choosing which side of the conflict to support and which to censor.
If The Sims 4 is really going for that realistic reflections of reality aka "everyone is represented" I have to say two things. First, it's a fire sure way to create conflict and two if you want to reflect reality you can't censor things by picking a side of a conflict between to groups to support. You have to stay neutral and censoring the shrines just isn't a neutral position.
Going to add onto that with a better executive choice for determining inclusion than a staff member:
noun: semiotics
the study of signs and symbols and their use or interpretation.
noun: semiotician
a person who studies semiotics

How and why is commercial semiotics applied to brands and marketing?
Semiotics is the most appropriate tool for understanding questions surrounding brand symbolism and meaning and the multiple and layered messages that underpin this meaning.
Brands are big business – intangible assets are an increasingly important proportion of a company’s balance sheet and powerful brands are a large part of this. Brands are viewed from the semiotic view as consumable signs that are invested with positive meanings through systems of differences. At a time when brands are becoming increasingly ubiquitous as a way of packaging goods, services, and events, it has become more important than ever to manage their meaning through marketing communications. The continuing onset of globalization and increasingly assertive brands in developing markets has given a further fillip to this trend.
The fragmentation of media and the migration of brands online, as well as increasing mistrust of corporations have meant that the task of conveying the right meanings has become even more challenging. Applied semiotics in marketing can be conceived of primarily as a decision-making tool.
