I’ve often wanted to ask them what they cook for themselves. I’d give it a shot.
After a stroll through several markets there I can say that is a rather bold statement to make and I am not so inclined.

I can’t think of any other dish that so much different outside of where it originated
Americans have found a way to create bullshite rolls crammed with multiple kinds of fish, cream cheese, topped with at least one kind of aioli, and a handful of crumbled deep fried stuff, cut into pieces too big to fit into a mouth. This breaks all of the rules of Japanese cuisine.

That is not bastardization. It does not completely change the dish. It just add a different layer of umami and richness. You would never know it was in there.
