Why do you believe mantaining an acceptable level of peacefulness requires torture?

I don’t accept your premise that the Japanese system is torture.
Extreme control of movement and sleep including deprivation of it for arbitrary amounts, constant lighting, no outside time, nothing to do for months at a time, lack of nutritious food, all those things in combination constitue torture under most modern definitions.
