Nooooooooooo, I was about to go to Japan this November, using my iPhone 14 Pro to take pictures of Japan with less tourists...............
With special privilege that’s not available for regular tourist of course.

Personally, someone going with the main purpose to take photos of a place is the most touristy of tourists.
Even when I visit a place like Japan for 3 months, I barely take photos because it takes you out of it and you get in the way.
Take enough photos to capture key memories and places but mainly enjoy the actual adventure.
To not be a tourist in my mind you should be living there, not trying to document it.
But to each their own how they want to live, I just wanted to rant on your rant.
They will soon learn that nobody cares.
Doubtful they were even considered going to Japan, they just wanted to brag about a piece of hardware.
Americans coming here with iPhone 14 Pro phones aren't going to have a good time: the easy and cheap way to get cellular data here is to buy a tourist 30-day SIM card at 7-11 or the airport and put that in your phone. But the 14 Pro (US model) doesn't have a SIM slot. But that's OK: anyone with a 14 Pro should be perfectly happy to just keep their regular US phone service while overseas, and pay exorbitant roaming charges. If you look at forums discussing this issue, this is exactly what the Apple fans advocate, and that you're being cheap if you waste time on foreign SIM cards to save money.
Airbnb's usually provide one.
