Sounds like people in Tokyo. "Largest city narcissist syndrome" or something.
As for variations on pronunciation, yeah, that's true across every language. When you teach a new language to people you just have to pick (or create) a variation that will be intelligible to people who speak it natively. You can't teach the infinite variations of pronunciation, grammar, etc. in a beginner language course. You'd just confuse people.
Or New York City where people assume without explaining the whole world knows the difference between bronx brooklyn and so on. Unless you live there, who cares? And they sneer at us for being "flyover territory" because obviously the only other place that exists is LA. Imagine "standard" English was assumed to be Noo Yawk accent.
