Why did Japan get involved with the US when developing the next-gen Japanese TSF? Is Japan planning to demo/promote it's wares to the US?
The US (via Lockweed Mardin**) can develop it's own cutting edge TSF without Japan's help.

That would, of course, necessitate him trying to fit into that system.

Again, it doesn't answer the Project Prominence's existance. The American tactics just highlighted the issues with the engine's operational range and it doesn't need be Amercian.
American's speed would also benefit melee combat i.e. greater speed has greater KE e.g. closer to Gundam 00 (high-speed melee bias Gundam with two GN-drives) or GNX-U02X Masurao (high-speed melee combat GNX with two GN-T drives).
By the way, the USN won the Pacific War.

It might ultimately entail them becoming more like the American design but you don't scrape your own design until you actually attempt to improve on its positives.

The problem was the unbalanced design. The next Japanese TSF update package would include uprated engines which supports Yuuya's view i.e. uprated engines would balance control vs engine power ratio.
The combined US+Japan combat style would also match Yuuya's mix-heritage.
Yuuya's and Yui's personal interactions are just added noise/spice.
