There are often button which do important things, I want to double check the meaning of before clicking them. Selecting the text to copy/paste into a translator is absolutely beneficial.
And in Japan, the general layout of the "Go back to previous screen" and "confirm and continue" (left and right, respectively), is reversed from what English readers might be used to.
So if I can't select the text... I open up a hand-drawing-chinese-characters app and slowly draw out each character? I'd rather be able to select the text.
Note: unfortunately, so many button in Japanese UIs are actually .png files. I know this from experience of using and building apps and websites here.
