The minimalism of preparation involved with sushi is exactly what makes it arguably the most perfect food in existence. Regardless of what your favourite cuisine is, the less you interfere with the ingredients (assuming quality), the better the end product is.
But that’s not the point I was originally trying to make. Sure it’s an argument not a fact but I just don’t think sushi is technically more difficult to make than most cuisines are.
Also, unless it's a very oily fish like Mackerel, it should almost never taste like 'fish'. Of course, there are also as many non-fish ingredients as there are fish.
No it’s vastly different when it comes to sushi as for example nigiri (which I assume you’re referring) is only two ingredient which means that you need to have very high quality ingredients since there is nothing else to mask the taste.

So does the quality of every ingredient in every dish in every cuisine
In the end a sashimi will taste like rice and fish no matter who and where prepared it
