I guess adding few USN and/or RN Ships would make all those people STFU, and it probbly helps the studio in the long run.

As for power creep, it had to come one way or another. KanColle, being a browser game, limits what one can do game-mechanics-wise. Tho in my case, i'd rather see my japanese girls evolve, than seeing introduction of more foreign ships. Remember, Tanaka announced that he "would like to" introduce Allied ships way before all these political things could intervene, even before anime was announced. It was so long ago that many consider the announcement no longer valid.

Good news is that IJN ships will continue to remain the main theme of the game, this will not be changed by whatever foreign ship they introduce. With that assured I don't really see any solid reasons to object US ships anymore.
