I would say that most everything you said without reference in your bullet points is probably false. It is the party line which needs to be demonstrated rather than said. None of that is how things "regularly are."
High Tides in Japan, as an example, don't come fifty minutes later/earlier every day.
Your statement is no more than a silly red herring. The tides in Japan, their nature are due to its particular geographical location and the way in which the Pacific and the Sea of Japan interact. While tides are indeed controlled by lunar and solar cycles, anyone who has sailed can tell you that tides, their periodicity height and character are also greatly influenced by geographical location the nature of the surrounding coastline and the weather. For example Cromer, Lowestoft and Aldeburgh are fairly close to each other on the East Anglian coast in England. However, high tide is hours apart at these places. This is precisely the opposite to Southend and Herne Bay, which face each other across the mouth of the Thames. Their tides differ by only a few minutes. Why? Not because the earth is flat! rather it’s due to local geography and the shape of the coastline. While tides, like all other natural phenomenon, are very complex they can nonetheless less be predicted as all the influencing factors apart from weather are known, as a result accurate tide tables can and are produced all over the globe. The correlation between tides and lunar and solar cycles is so obvious that only one such as yourself who has an agenda could be blind to this fact.
Tides change in height – low water level and high water level vary throughout the month. The tides build up to a maximum and fall to a minimum twice a month. The tides with the biggest difference between high and low water are called springs and those with the smallest are called neaps. Spring tides, for example, happen just after every full and new moon, when the sun, moon and earth are in line. That's when lunar and solar tides line up and reinforce each other, making a bigger total tide. Neap tides occur when the moon is in the first or third quarter - when the sun, earth and moon form a right angle. The lunar high tide coincides with the solar low tide and they partly cancel out, giving a small total tide.
The regular motion of the sun, moon and earth cause spring tides to occur roughly 36 to 48 hours after the full or new moon, and for any given location, always at roughly the same time of day. These are undeniable facts, go check them, or ask any meteorologist or sailor.
