Japanese green teas are not usually steeped multiple times (though most will allow for a few steepings, and a few are designed for that).

This sounds a lot more like chinese teas, which are designed for multiple short steepings (gongfu ceremony) and more or less require a rinsing first steep.

You know it’s the same plant right? There’s only so many ways you can prepare and handle wine. The real variety comes from using other plants for the fermentation.

    Yes, exactly like "potato" or "apple" is always the same plant, and they don't each have literally thousands of different cultivars bred for different purposes and use cases.

    Oh wait.

    Ignoring that neither of these is true, you have hardly given any hint at any sort of knowledge and understanding of the "only so many ways" of preparing and handling anything, be it wine, potatoes, or tea.
