Unfortunately it is.
Here is the reasoning:
When you bow to someone that low you show you are inferior to them. That is the perceived notion that goes on here. Even if the Saudi King or the Japanese person had bowed back, the fact that he bowed low shows to them that their leaders are superior to ours.
Yeah, I get the "reasoning" - I just think it's baloney.
