Except that the USA didn't do this with the white German and Italian regimes, so expecting it to give non-white Japan greater slack than it did to Hitler or Mussolini stretches the meaning of plausibility. Germany and Italy were told to surrender unconditionally or else, and the result was that both countries were fought over, bombed, and shelled into abattoirs. Japan actually got the conditional surrender and the ability to escape being so fought over.
