It hasn't been on the table for consideration. Muh Western Canon. Muh Chaucer. It really is ridiculous.

Modern Japanese is a travesty of a language

that would be something like Sei Shonagon and Basho.
The thing that makes Japs like Dazai, Akutagawa and Mishima interesting is their knowledge of, and use of techniques found in Western literature, combined with an honest appraisal of certain uncomfortable Japanese cultural issues.
It's Proust in a Kimono, Kafka at the Kabuki.

As everyone else has told you Akutagawa is not classical.
Spinning gears is one of the great short stories though.
