Most Westerners eat long grain rice (Indica, pictured right). Long grain rice is drier. Most of the time it must be cooked like stir-fried rice with another ingredients or it'll be eaten mixed with spicy food like curry or gumbo.
On the contrary Japanese rice (Japonica, pictured left) is tastier. After cooking it becomes soft, sticky and springy because it contains moisture. When you bite, you feel delicate sweetness. We eat rice separately from other dishes and taste it with joy.
So, if you pour soy sauce onto the Japanese rice, you'll ruin its feature.
1) If you pour soy sauce onto the rice before eating the meal:
This is like you pour A1 steak sauce onto the best steak in town. You ruin the chef's best effort.
2) If you pour soy sauce onto the rice in the middle of your meal:
It indicates you are not satisfied with the main dish and insulting the chef or your friend who served the meal.
3) Soy sauce contains a lot of sodium.
