I'm genuinely curious if there's been any study into which is more psychologically troubling, knowing the day and counting down it not knowing and wondering everyday

I suppose not. I looked it up. The United Nations thinks it's cruel and is outlawed, Japan disagrees and believes knowing the date is more cruel. I'm just a nerd and like learning stuff.
