Not that I think anyone should go test, but I imagine that’s overstated because as far as I know, they didn’t do anything about Johnny Somali, who you’re rightly using as the poster-boy for disruptive foreigner.
they wouldn't hurt him physically on camera but there was active hunts for him and they did the japanese thing of going "HUH! HUH! NEEEYYYYY!" and intimidated him into a very shitty apology. Once with a group of young men who told him no more atomic bomb jokes, they're not yakuza, the second one I can't find is an older guy who made him parrot an apology in japanese and I think he was "former" yakuza or some shit.
Having said that, I have no doubt if you're a dickhead in public nothing would happen but a few threats and pressure to apologize. But if you continue to act like an idiot and not show respect to the person threatening you? I have zero doubt they'll come after you when the cameras are off. At that point it's not a national pride thing it's a personal one.
